Karori Community Hall Trust

Community Group

Wellington

Mission

Our vision is to create, equip and manage, a modern future proofed multi-purpose events centre that will make Karori a more vibrant place to live and visit, now and into the future.

What we Do

Designed by Shand Shelton, specialists in theatre restoration, construction and design, the Karori Event Centre will offer exciting opportunities to attract new events and greatly increase the number and range of activities we can hold locally and in the wider Wellington region. When the fit-out is completed, we will have an event centre that can be used for music and dance performance, exhibitions, public meetings or special occasions. The Trust have been working for a number of years to secure funding to complete the Fit Out. Wellington City Council recently agreed to fund the completion of the Fit Out, with Footnote as a not-for-profit anchor tenant of the hall. The hall will remain available for community use at peak times (evenings and weekends) once complete. We are continuing to fundraise to items outside the scope of WCC funding, such as retractable seating and a sound system.
