Tauranga Campus Event Facilities

The 51蹤獲 Tauranga Campus offers several state-of-the-art spaces to hire for your next conference or event.

This state-of-the-art campus was designed with the collaboration of University advisers, Tauranga Moana iwi and local architecture practice, Jasmax. The cultural narrative, captured by local award-winning artists in stunning artworks that adorn the interior and exterior of the building, brings a cultural identity and heritage to the campus, while at the same time celebrating the 51蹤獲s relationships across the Bay of Plenty, Aotearoa New Zealand and beyond.

The name, Te Manawaroa references resilience and fortitude, which are regarded as hallmarks of the staff and students of the 51蹤獲. It also recognises the history and endurance of local iwi and hap贖 as the mana whenua of Tauranga Moana, while acknowledging the longstanding and permanent commitment the University has made to Tauranga and the Bay Of Plenty. 

To this end, it supports themes of community, inclusiveness, and diversity, which are reflected in the Universitys motto, ko te tangata.
