Destination Dunedin
Dunedin
As the principal city of Otago, and the largest city area in New Zealand, Dunedin is renowned for its spectacular beauty. This friendly, compact city (population 130,000) is also the financial and commercial hub of a region where a thriving economy and a range of employment and investment opportunities make for an exciting place to live and work.
Delegates and partners attending the Local Government New Zealand Conference can take advantage of the City's accessible recreational and cultural venues, shopping and first-rate entertainment. Dunedin has a rich heritage of beautiful Edwardian and Victorian architecture which is the perfect complement to the vibrant restaurant and café scene, art galleries, museums, live club music and professional theatre and music.
The Octagon is busy with cafés and restaurants and theatres all under the watchful eye of the City's famous statue of poet Robbie Burns. Handy to the centre of town are numerous chic fashion boutiques.
