The Auckland Art Fair is likely to be the most influential exhibition you'll see this year. Nowhere else will you find such a large and diverse collection of contemporary New Zealand art.  It's your chance to view and purchase works by the region's most sought after artists.

A selection of New Zealand and Australia's finest galleries represent 180 contemporary artists from around the country. Participants range from well-established and mid-career artists to emerging. You'll recognise many of the names, but there are certain to be new artists to discover and pleasant surprises.

Rub shoulders with the who's who of the art world at the Vernissage, the Art Fair's signature opening party. View, schmooze and choose ahead of the masses at this exclusive art event. If you prefer a more leisurely pace, you can take advantage of the one-day passes. Recharge with a coffee or lunch and a glass of wine overlooking the harbour at the cafe and wine bar upstairs.

If you've been considering investing in art or wanting to add to your collection, the Auckland Art Fair is your best bet this year. With gallerists, dealers and other art experts on hand, you can get advice straight from the horse's mouth. There are also guided tours, artist talks, lectures and panel discussions featuring local and international speakers to help you get the most out of Auckland's most prestigious art event.
