“For an environmental conference, Te Pae Christchurch was awesome. You’re looking out of all the windows across trees and green spaces. The word beautiful came out a lot. They loved it. Loved the venue. Loved the whole city, really.

Working with the team was great. It was the smooth running of the team at Te Pae Christchurch - the run sheets, getting stuff sorted, the flexibility to allow us to go in earlier, just those little things made a real difference. It was a god-send to be able to use the whole venue. The overall feeling was great venue, beautiful city, great organisation.”
