Auckland Heritage Festival 09
Auckland Heritage Festival is a celebration of our city's heritage that involves a programme of 150 exciting, diverse and interactive events.
The festival encourages people of all ages to celebrate, embrace and learn about Auckland city's unique natural and cultural heritage. It is part of our long-term campaign to protect Auckland's heritage assets.
The theme of this year's festival is living heritage. Living heritage encompasses both natural and cultural heritage - it's those items, sites and areas we interact with in our daily lives. Heritage isn't frozen in our past - it informs today's and tomorrow's experiences.
There really is no other festival in Auckland that offers such a rich array of events. From volcanoes and islands, to machines, animals and buildings - the stories of Auckland will amaze and astound locals and visitors alike.
The Britomart precinct is the largest heritage conservation project in the country. Join this informative tour and learn more about the history of these amazing buildings, as well as the plans for the area.
