Lake Wānaka Centre is nestled in the heart of our picturesque township and is a key festival location for our major events. Built from natural timbers and locally stacked stone, and set within landscaped grounds along the clear waters of Bullock Creek, the original community venue embraces its idyllic surroundings. It is in close proximity to a number of hotels, restaurants and retail outlets.
Amigos & Wānaka Hotel lawn, Ardmore St, Wānaka
The jewel of our festival, the Crystal Palace Spiegeltent serves as a unique and atmospheric venue for our equally authentic performances. Enjoy this incredible temporary venue while it lasts!
17 Gordon Rd, Wānaka
A working production facility brewing with space for its tasting room, this sunny spot in the backblocks of Wānaka provides a cosy venue for special festival events.
The macrocarpa interior, old armchairs, and custom graffiti artwork (imagine a psychedelic, fear, and loathing-esque mural) bring ambiance and colour to this fully operational brew house.

The first passive community building in the southern hemisphere, the Luggate hall serves as a suitable venue for festival events. It features state-of-the-art-amenities, a spacious hall and scenic surroundings for all and is only a ten minute drive from the Wānaka CBD.
Cnr Kane Rd & Camp Hill Rd, Hāwea Flat
The Hāwea Flat hall is another festival venue mainstay offering a special rural community hall charm for our fabulous performers and audiences alike.
