Open Christchurch 2024

Join us for a celebration of architectural excellence. For this weekend only, you can experience many of the city's best buildings and spaces from the inside.

Building owners/kaitiaki will throw open the doors to their special spaces so that you can have a nosey and experience great design first-hand.

Explore over 45 buildings of architectural excellence, in addition to designed landscapes throughout one weekend.

With behind-the-scenes access and unique experiences or activities on offer, this is a chance to connect with Christchurch’s story as you uncover its special places. Encounter new spaces or get up close to the ones you love. You’ll discover the city in a new way.

Limited numbers and a small booking fee will apply for visiting private homes. The full programme will be announced on 21 March.

Please note that accessible access will vary between buildings included in the programme.
