EVENT VENUE AND DESTINATION
We don't do boring.
Welcome to the World Home of Bungy. We’ve gained a bit of a reputation over the years for organising epic parties. This is where it all began back in 1988 with the world’s first commercial bungy jump site. We are also home to the most epic events you are going to find anywhere on the planet, hosting world class performing artists and DJ’s, we are the place to be for a party and unforgettable experiences! Kitchen facilities and bar? Don’t worry, we’ve got it covered, and ready for you to use. We are here to collaborate and create once in a lifetime events. If that sounds like something you’d be keen to team up with us on, we would love to hear from you.
One of a Kind Experiences
The Kawarau Bungy Centre overlooks the Kawarau River and was purpose built into its dramatic landscape. The setting and scenery make it a truly unique location, let alone what else we can do to enhance your event. With a built-in stage, big screen and sound system inside the venue, we are already set up for a good time. Outside, we can offer bungy jumping and zipriding along the Kawarau River, all whilst your event is taking place…

Reviews
Spend the day with us and you'll never be the same! Read what these legends had to say about their experience.
The Kawarau Bungy Centre has hosted our most epic events, there is no other venue like it in New Zealand. It truly helped put us on the map and was responsible for our viral event highlight videos, people just couldn’t believe it!
No Trace Events
It’s the only place to kick off the biggest winter festival in New Zealand. The venue and bungy crew can pretty much do anything. Where else in the world can you party to world class DJ’s and throw yourself off a bridge at the same time!?
