Palmy Venues + Events is excited to announce a new partnership with Eventfinda, New Zealand’s leading independent ticketing provider, as our official ticketing partner.
Following a competitive procurement process, Eventfinda has been selected to provide ticketing services for the Central Energy Trust Arena and the Palmy Conference + Function Centre. The decision reflects a strategic shift by Palmy Venues + Events and the Palmerston North City Council to deliver a more flexible and transparent ticketing experience.
“We were impressed by Eventfinda’s deep understanding of council requirements, their technical capabilities, and their commitment to working collaboratively with our events community,” said John Lynch, Manager Venues + Events. “Their platform will significantly improve the ticketing experience for our eventgoers, while providing our team and event organisers with the control, data and support we need.”
Trusted across Aotearoa
Eventfinda is already the ticketing partner of choice for a growing number of local councils and public venues across New Zealand. Their platform is purpose-built to meet the evolving needs of local government – with proven security standards, financial transparency and user-friendly self-service tools.
Benefits of the Partnership
This new partnership brings several key benefits to both event organisers and attendees, including:
- Real-time reporting and financial transparency
- Proven cyber security and data protection standards
- Dedicated trust account for all ticket funds
- Seamless integration and self-service tools
- Responsive New-Zealand based customer and promoter support
Supporting Community and Commercial Success
Palmy Venues + Events hosts over 3,000 bookings each year across a wide range of activities – from grassroots sport and local celebrations to large-scale conferences and concerts. This move is part of Palmerston North City Council’s broader commitment to enhancing event delivery and ensuring community and commercial success.
We’re excited to work alongside Eventfinda and look forward to making the most of this new partnership to enhance event experiences in Palmy.
