The Leaving Party

Katherine Mansfield, one of New Zealand’s greatest writers, left New Zealand for good in 1908. Before doing so, she threw a leaving party and invited all her friends.

The party had many of her favourite ingredients: live music, good company, food offerings, tea, exquisite gin, parlour games, and elements of the occult and divination.

Take yourself back in time and explore Mansfield’s house, mid-party in this blissfully immersive event.

Food and drinks are included, although we cannot cater to specific dietaries.
