Tui Hills, Auckland

Nestled in the bush-covered Waitakere Ranges, with its award-winning Nikau Pavilion, Tui Hills offers a native garden setting and character function space where you feel a million miles from anywhere, but only 30 minutes drive from town.

Want to host a party or wedding, reward staff with a special night out, host a luncheon, launch a new product or organise a meeting or presentation? Tui Hills is situated on Scenic Drive in West Auckland, it's the perfect venue for an event with that Kiwi feel. There are three spaces, inside and out, plus a 40-vehicle car park, available to suit your needs. The award-winning Nikau Pavilion provides a huge 160sqm space for presentations, launches and other events, with the all-around glass sides able to be slid open to get you closer to nature. The 7-metre-high translucent roof gives perfect soft lighting for photography. In 2024 the Nikau Pavilion received a Gold Medal for spatial design at the prestigious Best Design Awards of the Design Institute of New Zealand. The medal is for a combination of both aesthetic look and design innovation. The judges commented: “This is a well-considered intervention which finely balances the weight and presence of the structure with a sense of lightness. The roof appears to float amongst the canopy layers of the native bush. This attention extends into the detailing and operability of the structure to support its various event functions and modes.” A big thank you to Jack O’Neill and the team at Strata Architects, Auckland for their design, and Fever Pitch Building for constructing this wonderful space for our customers. You can break for meals, or enjoy dining and dancing at night, in the Nectar Room. While the Kowhai Glade pprovides a beautiful garden setting with its iconic rotunda.

Samantha Lines | ETEL Transformers

Our event at Tui Hills was really well organised. The communication beforehand was fantastic, the support on the day was incredible and the event was perfect. Steph from Tui Hills had all her ducks in a row, met me at the event, made suggestions of ways we could use the space and AV to our advantage, and overall made the experience amazing. Her colleague Chelsea was so helpful and so incredibly kind to us throughout the day. The kitchen was flexible with our timings and all the wait staff were helpful and friendly. We would absolutely book with Let Me Out and Tui Hills again and again.

Attending our company Christmas function at Tui Hills Estate was an absolute delight. The venue's stunning ambience, flawless organisation, and attentive service left a lasting impression on everyone. The catering service deserves special mention. The menu offered a delectable array of dishes that catered to a variety of tastes. The presentation was exquisite, and the quality of the food was outstanding.

The venue looked great on the website and the date was available. Stephanie was great to work with prior to the event and on the night. The staff were amazing and the whole setup was beautifully done.

Unforgettable occasions in the heart of Kumeu wine country. Get away from the hustle and bustle of the city for an event to remember, whether that's team building, a business meeting, birthday, wedding, or one of our legendary Christmas parties.
