Discover world-class exhibitions at Tākina

Tākina Wellington Convention and Exhibition Centre is Wellington’s home for extraordinary exhibitions that inspire, educate, and delight visitors of all ages. Over the years, we’ve welcomed a diverse line-up of iconic experiences — from beloved animations and superheroes to street art legends and roaring dinosaurs.
