Package Information


Standard Package

The Standard Package is designed for hirers who are organising their own event and simply need a well-equipped, reliable space to make it happen. If you have your own team, your own suppliers, and your own programme sorted, this package gives you everything you need to get on with it.

Te Whare Maui's Main Hall is a genuinely impressive space. At full capacity it holds up to 300 guests, and with the Standard Package you have access to the PA sound system, stage lighting, a wireless microphone, a projector and screen, high-speed WiFi, 250 cushioned chairs, tables, heating and cooling, and an on-site staff member available for support. Everything is set up and ready for you to take the reins.

The Standard Package works best for self-organised events that do not require extensive AV production, multiple microphones, or advanced sound mixing. If you know what you are doing and you just need a great space to do it in, this is your package.

Premium Package

The Premium Package is for self-organised hirers who want the complete Main Hall experience and need the best technical setup the venue has to offer. With ten hours of access including a two-hour early start, advanced AV capability, and additional staff support, it gives experienced organisers and their teams everything they need to run a high-quality event on their own terms.

At the heart of the Premium Package is the Midas M32r digital mixing console, one of the most capable live sound systems available at any venue in Hamilton. Combined with all four wireless microphones, all three projectors with independent screen control, full lighting capability, and a dedicated soundbooth technician for setup and packdown, the Premium Package puts serious technical capability in the hands of your team.

The two-hour early access gives you time to soundcheck, rehearse, and prepare before guests arrive. The Dining Room is included as a dedicated space for catering, dining, or pre-function drinks. An additional on-site staff member is available throughout to support your team as needed.

For experienced organisers, production companies, and self-sufficient teams who want the full run of the venue's technical capability, the Premium Package delivers.

Wedding Package

The Wedding Package is our most complete offering for couples celebrating their special day. Designed to take the stress out of wedding planning, this package brings together everything you need to host a beautiful, memorable reception. All in one place, all taken care of.

Te Whare Maui offers a rare combination of warmth, flexibility, and authentic cultural character that makes it unlike any other wedding venue in Hamilton. Whether you are envisioning an intimate reception with close family or a full celebration with up to 300 guests, our spaces adapt to your vision rather than the other way around.

A private bridal preparation room gives the wedding party a calm and beautiful space to get ready. The Main Hall sets the stage for your reception with premium sound, lighting, and full AV. The Dining Room flows naturally into your wedding breakfast or dinner. The Outdoor Grounds offer a stunning backdrop for photos, garden drinks, or an outdoor ceremony. With a bump-in day included, your decorators, caterers, and suppliers can set everything up the day before so your wedding day itself is exactly what it should be. Yours to enjoy.

For couples wanting to weave te ao Māori into their day, Te Whare Māui is uniquely positioned to offer a formal Mihi Whakatau welcome, Kapa Haka performance, and Kai Māori as optional additions that bring genuine cultural depth to your celebration.

Conference Package

The Conference Package is built for organisations that need a professional, fully equipped venue that keeps their event running without a hitch. From boardroom breakouts to main stage presentations, everything your delegates need is in one place and ready to go.

Te Whare Maui understands that a successful conference is about more than just a big room. It is about giving your team and delegates the right environment to focus, connect, and get things done. With a premium Main Hall featuring independent screen control across three displays, a private boardroom for executive discussions, a dedicated breakout and training room, and a Dining Room for catered lunches and refreshments, every part of your event is accounted for.

Two on-site staff members are included to help the day run smoothly, and a bump-in day ensures your AV is tested, your layout is set, and your team is ready before a single delegate walks through the door.

Celebrations Package

The Celebrations Package is designed for events that mark a moment worth remembering. Formal enough to feel special, flexible enough to make it your own. Whether you are honouring an achievement, recognising someone important, or simply celebrating a milestone in style, this package gives your event the stage it deserves.

Te Whare Māui has everything a celebration needs to feel truly special. A dedicated soundbooth technician ensures your speeches, presentations, and entertainment sound polished and professional. A lectern with built-in microphone is ready for your speakers. A private VIP room gives your guest of honour or key speakers a space to prepare. A green room provides a comfortable holding area for entertainers or presenters. And the Dining Room is yours for post-ceremony dining, drinks, and mingling.

With a bump-in day included, your team can style and prepare the space the day before so the celebration itself is focused entirely on the people being honoured.

Full Venue Package

The Full Venue Package is for events that are too important, too large, or too special to compromise on space. When you book the Full Venue Package, Te Whare Māui is entirely yours. Every room, every space, every square metre of the venue is available to you and your guests for the full duration of your hire.

The Main Hall anchors your event with premium sound, lighting, and full AV capability for up to 300 guests. The Dining Room provides a dedicated space for catering and dining. Rimu and Matai offer professional breakout, boardroom, and training spaces for events running multiple concurrent streams. Kauri provides a private VIP or speaker preparation room. The Outdoor Grounds extend your event outdoors for garden receptions, breakout sessions, or fresh air between programme items. The Catering Prep Area supports whatever catering arrangements you have in place.

Two on-site staff members are included to keep everything coordinated across the venue, and a bump-in day gives your team the time and space to set everything up properly the day before.

For events that need the full capability of a versatile, culturally rich Hamilton venue, there is no better choice.
