Friday 11th Sep, 2026 Stella Awards Celebration Evening 🎉

Friday 11th September – The Stella Awards Are Nearly Here!

Friday 11 September 2026 | 6:30pm-Midnight | Great Lake Centre

This is one night you won’t want to miss. Our friends at Town Centre Taupō have put together an incredible evening celebrating the best of Taupō business — and yes, that includes YOU.

The theme is black and gold, so leave the suit and tie at home — if you’re wearing the right colours, you’re dressed perfectly. The Stella Awards are more fun than formal, and this year looks like no exception.

Here’s what you can look forward to on the night:

• A showcase of all finalists across every category
• Awards presented to Winners and Runners-up
• The legendary Ben Hurley as MC for the evening
• A seriously good buffet (we’re told it’s unbelievably good — we believe it)
• Plenty of entertainment throughout the night
• A great excuse to unwind with friends and a few well-earned bevvies
