Eden Park welcomes Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei to Ngā Ana Wai – for the signing of a kōtuitanga, a shared agreement between Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei and Ngā Ana Wai which builds on the foundations of a strong, strategic relationship and fosters mahi tahi and reciprocity.
Eden Park is one of New Zealand’s premier destinations for live events, including the overwhelming success of the four-day Te Matatini Herenga Waka Herenga Tangata festival, hosted by the national stadium in February 2023.
Woman in Sport – The record crowd for a football match in Aotearoa New Zealand – women’s or men’s – was broken three times in Auckland peaking at 43,217 and a total of 255,000 fans in attendance. The FIFA Women’s World Cup was an awesome showcase of the best of New Zealand playing out across billions of TV screens worldwide.
The stadium has cultivated on-site beehives. They estimate that approximately 360,000 bees now call Eden Park home. The bees travel up to five kilometres in the summer and three in the winter to search and collect pollen and the honey is available for purchase at the stadium’s main reception.
