Christchurch is a city that blends creativity, culture, and easy access to the outdoors - a great place to explore while you’re here for the conference. Take a stroll along the Avon River, wander through the central city and its vibrant laneways, or visit the Christchurch Art Gallery and Art Precinct for a dose of local history and creativity.

If you enjoy gardens and green spaces, the Botanic Gardens and Hagley Park are an easy walk from the city centre. For something a bit different, hop on the historic tram, ride the Gondola for panoramic views, or head to the beach at New Brighton.

Food lovers will find plenty to enjoy, from the bustling Riverside Market to a wide range of cafés, bars, and restaurants dotted around the city. And if you have time for a day trip, the natural beauty of Akaroa, Hanmer Springs, or the Port Hills is right on Christchurch’s doorstep.

Christchurch is a welcoming base for your visit - with plenty to see, taste, and experience between conference sessions.
