Conveniently located in the centre of New Zealand and long known for the stunning Marlborough Sounds and world famous Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough is a region of beauty, sunny skies and fabulous food and wine. Whether you want adventure, relaxation or indulgence there are a multitude of options for convention and incentive groups.
Marlborough’s commercial hub is Blenheim, and has a compact town centre featuring river banks and gardens. North of Blenheim is Picton, the entry point for the inter-island ferry services and the seaport gateway to the stunning Marlborough Sounds and Queen Charlotte Track. South west of Blenheim, at the head of the Kenepuru Sound is Havelock, Marlborough’s other main town and the Greenshell Mussel Capital of the World.
Getting your delegates to Marlborough is a breeze! Blenheim Airport is located 5km from Blenheim and close to accommodation and attractions. Three airlines offer regular chartered scheduled flights into the region; Air New Zealand flies directly from Auckland Wellington and Christchurch. Picton receives regular ferry services from Wellington and Picton Airport has 5 of the cheapest scenic flights a day.
The venues in Marlborough can cater for groups from 20 to 750 people in theatre style, and with locations as varied as the town centre, secluded bays or amongst the vines, there is something to suit everyone.
