The Kiwi Ball was held at the Regala Sky City Hotel on Saturday. New Zealanders and friends of Aotearoa got together to celebrate all that’s wonderful about our country - and enjoyed an extensive buffet, NZ wines and beers, Kapa Haka performance by Te Hokioi ki Whanga Kakara, live band, vibrant art display by contemporary artist Alex Leung and more!
The FLIGHT NZ 2026 theme was inspired by New Zealand’s aviation history, including the remarkable achievements of Kiwis, such as Richard Pearse and Jean Batten. As an island nation, aviation has been a part of our narrative, from the early 19th century when balloon flights began, to launching rockets into space. For a country where our national icon is a flightless bird, Kiwis have been taking off in wonderful ways!
