Due Drop Events Centre is an event venue at 770 Great South Rd in Wiri, Manukau, with a 4.4 rating on Google. Its website says it is owned and run by Waka Pacific Trust on behalf of the community, and has hosted more than 2.2 million guests over a decade.
The website lists exhibitions, concerts, conferences, conventions, seminars, festivals, fairs, fashion shows, graduations, plays, weddings, workshops and community activities. It describes flexible spaces that can suit a board meeting for 10, a conference for 1200 or a concert for 4000, all under one roof, with catering and audiovisual partners and event staff who help organisers from start to finish. It sits beside the motorway, about ten minutes from Auckland International Airport, which makes access easy for out-of-town guests. The trust also runs a free schools programme offering arts experiences. If you are planning an event, ask about capacity for your format, what equipment and catering are included and how bump-in and bump-out work.
For organisers across south Auckland, Due Drop Events Centre on Great South Road is a large, well-placed venue to consider.
