Various locations across Christchurch: 50 open buildings, 4 guided walks, 3 designed landscapes, 3 special events, 1 weekend.
Discover Ōtautahi through architecture.
Open Christchurch is a one-weekend-only festival of exceptional architecture. It’s for everyone in Ōtautahi Christchurch.
On Saturday 4 May and Sunday 5 May, building owners/kaitiaki of 50 of Christchurch's best buildings will throw open their doors so you can experience great design, from the inside, for free. (A handful of bookings-only private residences and guided walks will incur $5 plus booking fee).
This year’s festival will celebrate adaptive reuse and innovative mixed-use buildings, take a closer look at recreational architecture and explore residential architecture over the span of 160 years, in addition to a range of heritage treasures, returning favourites and one-off experiences.
With behind-the-scenes access and unique experiences on offer, this is a chance to connect with Christchurch’s story as you uncover its special places.
There are free, bookable activities on offer also, so that you can delve a little deeper into these spaces: expert talks, children's activities, behind-the-scenes tours and exhibitions.
Encounter new spaces or get up close to the buildings you love. You’ll discover the city in a new way. Visit openchch.nz to find out more.
