Corporate venues in Auckland

With the flexibility of luxury glamping set up, you have a wide range of venue options across the Auckland region to choose from. You could opt to hold your event at a Department of Conservation (DOC) campsite, find an Auckland Council park or beach, or book into an Auckland Council holiday park. No matter which outdoor venue you go for, you can feel assured you will be well removed from the stuffy, staid venues often associated with business events. Instead, you could be networking with a view of the wild west coast, connecting with your team in a native bush setting, or celebrating with the Waitematā Harbour as a backdrop.

Why choose Social Nature Movement for your next corporate event? 

Social Nature Movement provides options beyond the standard offerings for business events. A more nature-oriented approach can be a powerful counterweight to the typical trappings of the corporate world, showing your dedication to supporting the wellbeing of your team. Getting outdoors and active for your next event is a great way to incorporate physical and mental health into your corporate function. Another reason to choose our glamping accommodation is that planning staff parties and corporate functions can be challenging. We help to make the set-up easy, organising glamping tents and event marquees. We can also help to organise recreational activities depending on the venue of your choice. For example, if you choose a relaxing and peaceful location next to a river or quiet harbour, your team might want to enjoy stand up paddle boarding as an evening activity. 

Get out of the office and closer to nature

We manage outdoor locations such as campgrounds and regional parks, in line with our ethos of immersive education and powerful nature-based experiences. We ensure your events are more nature-focused, providing you with the setup you need for a corporate function in a park or other natural area. Increasingly, employees are looking to their employers to care for their wellbeing – a thoughtful business event centred around the benefits of being in nature is one way to create a better employee experience. Connecting with nature is a powerful antidote to stress, a driver of creativity, and the ideal place to build more meaningful relationships with other people. So holding corporate events outdoors is an ideal option. We find ways to integrate human-powered transport into your event, for example arranging bike hire from your hotel or pointing out running tracks. We’re committed to ensuring your team is active and engaged, reaping the rewards of spending time active and outdoors. 

Celebrate success

You might be celebrating important milestones as a company, the success of your team members, or simply an exceptional quarter. Holding a corporate function in a glamping setup is a luxurious and unique way of coming together as a team and celebrating success. At the end of the year, you can also opt for an unforgettable Christmas party, with a rustic, nature-based aesthetic. Setting up a Christmas party away from the standard office or city environment can be a truly rewarding way to close out the year and thank your team for their hard work.    

Enjoy in-person communication

In a new era of remote and distributed working, having the full team together is a special event. A corporate function is a great opportunity to get everyone together in an environment that facilitates genuine connection.  

Enjoying an experience closely connected with nature is a chance to forge stronger bonds as a team and ensure a better working experience. Nothing beats offline, in-person communication.
