NZMPA Christchurch Conference 2024

April 12, 2023

The NZMPA conference for 2024 will be held at the fabulous Christchurch Town Hall between Tue 17^th September – Friday 20^th September 2024.

Themes, speakers, an advertising prospectus, and the registration process will follow before the November 2023 AGM.

Nestled on the banks of the Avon River, this heritage-listed venue has inspired guests and performers alike, for generations. In recent years the building has been beautifully restored and refurbished, the venue’s acoustics and integrated technology – including projectors, screens and sound systems – only serve to enhance its iconic architectural features and riverside views.

It is a fitting venue for our international conference. Visit https://www.venuesotautahi.co.nz/hire/christchurch-town-hall to see full details of the venue.
