Step inside a world of theatrical and architectural wonder and discover the secrets of The Civic! Our guides will uncover the incredible history that brings this amazing venue to life.
“What an enlightening tour - we would never have believed there was so much to The Civic! - we can't recommend this tour highly enough…” - Tour patron.
Warm with nostalgia, The Civic Tours take visitors on a journey that spans almost one hundred years, from the venue’s inception in the late 1920s and heyday during the war years with its showgirls, cabaret acts, and celebrities, through to the 1990s where the venue’s future lay in the balance before its glorious restoration to the iconic venue that breathes life into the heart of Auckland today.
2 friends and I really enjoyed the Civic Tour experience. It is well worth the time to look through the Civic. So much history and facts we would never have known. James was an excellent guide. I would definitely suggest you do this tour
Amazing building, fascinating look into what goes on behind the scenes at a theater. Our guide was absolutely wonderful and knowledgeable. Only downside was the ticket was a bit pricey.
loved seeing the inner workings of this gorgeous theatre. love that it has been lovingly restored. wish I had more time to see all the pictures, but I'm planning to do this tour again, to see everything up close.
Wonderful tour, I can highly recommend. Taken to see not only the areas normally used by the public but also to areas normally off limits. If you love architecture, history or just the theatre then this is the tour for you. Not too long, or arduous. Fantastic guide who was knowledgable, entertaining and welcoming. Go see a prominent piece of Auckland history. Auckland is blessed.
