After two sell-out years, Party on the Pitch returns in 2026, building on the success and energy that have made it a highlight of Dunedin's social calendar.
Gather your colleagues, clients, friends or team and celebrate the year's achievements with an unforgettable afternoon on the iconic turf of Forsyth Barr Stadium.
Set against the remarkable backdrop of a world-class stadium, guests will enjoy an indulgent four-course long lunch curated by Vault 21's acclaimed Culinary Lead, Greg Peckowski.
Each course is expertly paired with premium wines, beers and bespoke cocktails crafted in partnership with Lion, creating a dining experience worthy of the occasion.
The experience begins with a red-carpet arrival and a glass of bubbles before guests take their place on the hallowed turf for an afternoon of exceptional hospitality.
Live entertainment, stylish activities and premium food and beverage experiences ensure there is something to discover throughout the event.
Whether you're rewarding your team, entertaining valued clients, or celebrating with friends or family before the festive season begins, Party on the Pitch offers a truly unique way to mark the end of the year.
With limited capacity and no comparable experience available elsewhere in Dunedin, Party on the Pitch is more than a long lunch.
It's one of the region's most anticipated social occasions and an experience not to be missed.
