Matariki Ball

Please join us to celebrate 2023 Matariki in style and support a fabulous cause - the NZ Brain Tumour Trust.

Matariki represents a time of renewal, reflection, and gathering. The NZBTT draws upon the spirit of the Matariki celebration as we come together to celebrate Matariki and bring hope for the future.

Our special guest is TVNZ Presenter Daniel Faitaua. Astrophysicist Jonathan Squire will tell us about the Matatiki stars and following fine food and wine, a live auction will include local delicacies, adventures and art. Live local band LASocial will ensure your toes are tapping or dancing.

Why? Brain tumours are one of the most challenging and complex medical conditions & over 400 new cases of brain cancer are diagnosed in NZ each year. Every age and gender are affected, including young dynamic people with new careers and families. Furthermore, many other cancers, such as breast, colon, prostate and melanoma spread to the brain. Treatment is challenging and success rates unpredictable. All proceeds go towards improving brain tumour treatment and helping patients and families affected.
