Overview

Ever wanted to see what happens behind the curtain of one of the last remaining atmospheric theatres in the Southern Hemisphere? Auckland Live's The Civic Tours are back, offering walking tours of the iconic landmark.

The Civic Tours offer an immersive look into the workings of the historic landmark. You'll hear about the theatre's heyday in the 1930s and 40s when it was a glamorous picture palace, as well as stories from when it faced the wrecker's ball in the 1990s.

Returning in April, The Civic Tours are being held on weekday mornings as well as returning to the popular Saturday slots. Each tour is an hour long and tickets include a complimentary beverage from Stark's Café and Bar.
