City Welcoming Session

Have you recently arrived in Palmy? If you have, we'd like to say a warm ‘kia ora’ and welcome you to our wonderful city!

Join us at Te Manawa Museum for our renowned welcome ceremony with a pōwhiri, hosted and led by Rangitāne to formally welcome all newcomers to Palmy. Following the welcome we’ll come together to share some kai (food) and get to know one another.

Palmy is known for being welcoming and friendly, and Welcoming Week is always a special time of celebration and unity. We're looking forward to meeting all our newest residents and sharing some awesome Palmy maanakitanga with you.

Registration is not required for this free event. We look forward to seeing you there!
