On Waitangi Day, 18 unique heritage destinations will open their doors for free. This family-friendly day will feature activities for all ages, including guided tours and interactive experiences designed to bring history to life.

Visitors will receive a complimentary educational booklet, Walking the Pathway to Nationhood (while stocks last). This resource delves into the stories behind three of our most foundational documents—He Whakaputanga (the Declaration of Independence), Te Tiriti o Waitangi (the Treaty of Waitangi), and the Women’s Suffrage Petition.
