Overview
The COVID-19 outbreak saw Auckland's huge annual Art Fair move online for 2020, allowing art lovers to browse work from more than 30 galleries from the comfort of home.
The contemporary art showcase will return IRL for its first-ever summer edition from 24–28 February on Auckland's Queens Wharf.

For the first time in 2021 the event will also present a new outdoor sculpture space overlooking the Waitematā Harbour, and a major kinetic sculpture by Len Lye at the entrance to The Cloud. Food will be available by Hēmi Eatery and Waiheke's The Oyster Inn will be serving oysters from pop-up bars on Wednesday and Friday nights. Local brands including Scapegrace gin, Seresin Estate wines and Hallertau Brewery will be serving drinks.
