Spanning five city blocks from Margaret Mahy Family Playground to Lichfield Street, this park is one of Christchurch's largest public spaces, making it a great venue to hold an outdoor event.
Over time this area will develop into a new residential neighbourhood of the central city, so events in the future will need to be mindful of the impact on local residents.
The park's proximity to the heart of the central city, the Margaret Mahy Family Playground, and new residential neighbourhoods make it ideal for family-orientated events.
Opposite the Margaret Mahy Playground at the northern end of Rauora Park, an area with table tennis tables and a basketball hoop with a half-court should provide a hangout place for the local youth.
