What our customers say

“I love the Ashburton Event Centre space. I use the auditorium for events I organise and always find the staff willing to accommodate my ideas and are very helpful leading up to and on day of event. I also work as part of a team of a volunteer ushers and just love assisting people to seating. I get a lot of thank yous as they leave as they love the facility too! The range of events held in this centre is amazing – so lucky that we can attend world-class (and local) events in this amazing venue.”

I know the nature of our ‘down to the line’ programmes puts pressure on you and your team but you are so professional and courteous. It is much appreciated!”

“Our wedding reception was held in the theatre, and we found the venue to be fantastic. The transformation from theatre to Wedding venue was amazing and we received so many compliments on how great it looked.
Roger and the Ashburton Trust Event Centre staff went above and beyond to ensure both of us and our guests were well looked after and we all had a fantastic evening.”
