Join us for the Lake Taupō Manaakitanga Hui 2026, a feel-good industry get-together designed to bring our tourism community together ahead of the busy season.
The hui welcomes frontline staff, i-SITE teams from across the Central North Island, accommodation and hospitality teams, tourism operators, shared accommodation providers, council staff and industry partners from Taupō and beyond.
It’s all about sharing knowledge, showcasing what’s new (and what locals love), and strengthening connections across the tourism sector — so everyone feels confident talking about and selling the Taupō region.
Whether you’re new to tourism or have been part of the industry for years, this is a great chance to connect with others, learn more about local experiences, and be part of a stronger, more connected tourism community.
Why Attend?
- Discover what’s new and coming soon, alongside strong local favourites

- Enjoy great food, relaxed networking and spot prizes throughout the day
