Event photography and videography at New Zealand International Convention Centre

The New Zealand International Convention Centre, known as the NZICC, officially opened in February 2026 and immediately established itself as Aotearoa's flagship large-scale event venue. Located at 101 Hobson Street within the SkyCity precinct, it is the country's only venue with official International Convention Centre status, with 32,500 square metres of flexible space and a theatre seating close to 3,000. The NZICC was purpose-built for the most demanding international conventions, conferences, and large corporate events, with world-class audiovisual infrastructure, multiple breakout rooms, and exhibition hall capacity. For organisations hosting national or international delegates, this is the definitive Auckland choice. For corporate event photography and videography, the scale of the NZICC creates its own visual language. Wide environmental shots, speaker podium moments, and networking scenes all read differently at this size, and working the space well requires experience with large-venue event coverage, which is exactly where Sonna's team excels.
