Contact our Venue Hire team

Rangi Ruru has an extensive range of venue spaces available for hire. With historic Te Koraha nestled amongst gorgeous gardens, not only is it the perfect setting for events, it offers both large and small spaces that can be tailored to any occasion.

If you are looking to host 10-200 guests, arrangements can be made to suit your special event. With Rangi Ruru’s qualified chefs and catering staff on site, high quality, flexible catering options are available. Options include formal dinners, casual buffet dining, nibbles, morning and afternoon teas.

Our venues represent excellent value for money and can be hired outside of school time, including after school, on weekends and during term breaks.

The Flute Symposium went extremely well, and we were very lucky indeed to have the use of Rangi Ruru’s performing arts block. The facilities really are amazing. Everyone at the Symposium had a great time, and when I popped in each day to catch a bit of what was going on there was a lovely buzz of people really having a terrific time of learning and music-making. Thanks so much to the Rangi team for making this all possible!
