"Our Place' is a space for relaxation, learning, and connection," says Jaylene of WAI Wānaka. "We're excited to chat with locals and visitors alike about our collective mahi and ways to get involved, whether it be volunteer time, skills, land or a donation. Afterall, 'Our Place' is your place, too!"

From interactive games and prizes to bean bags and seats in the shade with a cup of tea, attendees can explore topics such as backyard trapping, native planting and climate action at a community level.

'Our Place' would like to thank the Rotary Club of Wānaka, for offering their tent in-kind, the Wānaka and Districts Lions Club for their donation towards resources, as well as the Wānaka A&P Show, for providing 'Our Place' with a site at this year’s show.

As of 29 February 2024, our Honda dealership regrets to inform our valued customers of its termination (Honda has decided to appoint a new partner in Queenstown). Unfortunately, the decision was beyond our control and will disrupt the servicing of your vehicles impacting the important relationship we have built with you over the past three years.

Despite efforts to challenge Honda’s decision, Honda has insisted on a course of action that, in our view, does not share the value we have placed on our relationship with you. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and assure you of our commitment to assist you during this transition. We will actively facilitate the smooth transfer of service records and provide you with guidance on alternative service options going forward.

We wish to extend our deepest gratitude for your loyalty and trust over the past three years. Though we will cease to be your designated dealership for your Honda vehicle, our team at Wanaka Powersports remains ready to assist you with any powersports requirements.

Our dedication to integrity, honesty, and respect endures and we are disappointed with the decision that Honda has made without reference to us. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your automotive journey.

Honda Store Wanaka & Wanaka Powersports.
