Where to go

Kiwijam Auckland is taking place at the Unleash Space at the University of Auckland. We’d recommend taking public transport to get here if you can, as parking in the CBD can be expensive! If you do end up taking a car, the OGGB carpark is your best bet for nearby covered parking at $6 per day.
