Balcony to Bay with Aaiotanga Trust
Sunday 12 April 2026, 2:00pm - 4:30pm
2 Symonds Street, Auckland CBD,
Come along to an urban walk across Auckland CBD organized by City Centre Gardening Network, and Aaiotanga Trust. Guided by an expert ecologist, this Balcony to Bay walk provides insight into the natural wonders that exist within the city, and how to best look after them. Each part of our journey will highlight the plants, insects, birdlife and landscape features of our city, as well as the surprising opportunities there are to transform unexpected spaces in-between, for the life and well being in the city.
Beginning at St Andrew’s Hall (behind the big beautiful church on the corner of Alten Road and Symonds St), we will gently make our way through the grounds of Old Government House, down through the lush vegetation of the Law School to the University of Auckland Bee Sanctuary in Eden Crescent, through to Emily Reserve and completing at Aaiotanga Community Space, 22 Emily Place. Urban Ark will be attending this event in order to promote backyard trapping and our existing regeneration projects around Auckland Domain.
