Christmas at The Stables.

Some teams want lunch in the sun, a long table out on the sundeck, plates coming out steadily, lawn games going, everyone back at their desks (or home) while it's still light. Others want the full night out, a sit-down feast, private bar running until late and a dance floor till midnight.

The Stables does both.

What you get either way:

Midweek specials for groups of 50+
A festive season menu built specifically for December
Your own dedicated bar staff running a fully serviced private bar
Sundeck and courtyards for lunch in the sun, function room and dancefloor for after dark

Tell us the size, the vibe, the time of day and we can build the rest around you.

December's booking out fast. Get in touch to lock your date in.

Is there anything our chefs can't do?

In any given week, the kitchen behind The Stables events centre is:

From finger sandwiches to A la Carte.
Sorting staff meals between services to Handling every gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free and "no coriander, please" on the list

All while the 220-seat restaurant next door is full and firing.

So if the food is what's keeping you up at night about your event, it doesn't need to.

To our chefs: Thank you. We see every bit of it.

Conferences are calling!
Sick of conferencing in the city?

Get your team out of the boardroom and into somewhere they'll actually remember. One hour north of Auckland, easily accessible, with plenty of accommodation close by, The Stables Matakana is fully equipped to host your conference, surrounded by some of the most beautiful beaches in the country.

And we don't stop at the conference room. Run the day here, then let us host the evening too, a proper sit-down dinner, a conference party with a fully serviced private bar or something more relaxed next door at our restaurant if your team wants a change of scene. One venue, one booking, everything sorted from breakfast to last drinks.

Great food, a great conference space, fresh air instead of fluorescent lighting and a menu range to match the occasion, from formal sit-down dinners to relaxed casual catering.

When the work's done for the day, there's no shortage of ways to actually build a team:

Electric go-kart racing at E-Volt Racing
Archery, axe throwing and confidence courses at Action Matakana
A night out spotting wild kiwi with Kiwi Spotting Tours
Carve your own pounamu at Matakana Carving
On-site team activities for groups who'd rather not leave the building
Tailored theme nights, from casino nights to murder mystery and more,run for you by our partners at Clued up.

Whether it's an easy long lunch in the courtyard, drinks and canapés as the sun goes down or a full evening party under lights with a dance floor and DJ. Casual gathering or dressed-up affair, daytime or night, it's your call.

With exclusive hire, your own private bar, and settings from the Secret Garden to the patio, to our indoor function room, we'll shape the day around exactly how you picture it.

Some events need more than a great backdrop, they need space and a team who knows how to hold it.

The Stables sits on 50 acres in Matakana, with room for up to 1,000 guests standing or 120 seated indoors, plus courtyards, lawns, a dedicated function room, full AV and a private bar to match.

Weddings. Corporate milestones. Large-scale celebrations. As well as the gatherings that call for something quieter and more considered.

Whatever's bringing your people together, our team has done it before and knows how to make sure it's handled with care, from the first conversation to the last detail.

You know every word.

Hey Jude. Here Comes the Sun. Let It Be. The songs you didn't know you still had memorised until the first chord hits and it's all there, word for word, not just the chorus.

Abbey Road bring the real thing back to life at The Stables, the whole back catalogue, played the way it was meant to be heard. It's not a covers band doing a Beatles set. It's a room full of people who forgot how much they love this music, remembering all at once and singing their hearts out.

Doors open 5pm for dinner, music kicks off 6.30pm.

Get your table before this one sells out.
