Ashburton’s Premier Venue for live performances, conferences, and events
What’s on at the Ashburton Event Centre
Funding our future.
Over the years, our venue has been the stage for countless awe-inspiring performances, connecting artists with our audiences in unforgettable ways.
The Ashburton Performing Arts Theatre Trust has strived to maintain a high level of functionality ensuring it remains fit for purpose. But, just like a masterpiece requires periodic restoration and renewal, our much-loved venue is in need of an upgrade to ensure it continues to inspire future generations of performers and showcases their performances in comfortable and inviting surroundings for our audience. The wear and tear of 15 years of events, changing technology and evolving safety standards, necessitates significant renovations.
With your continued support and engagement, we look forward to making our venue an even more vibrant hub for the performing arts, a place where creativity knows no bounds, and where the magic of the stage continues to captivate hearts.
The Ashburton Event Centre is a modern, versatile facility for meetings, conferences, trade shows, live performances or theatre productions.
Located on Wills Street, the Ashburton Event Centre can host events of up to 500 people
