Getting here

The Organic & Biodynamic Winegrowing Conference is being held in Blenheim, NZ at the Marlborough Events Centre and ASB Theatre Marlborough (see map below). 

 

Marlborough has an airport with regular daily flights to and from Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.  It is also accessible by the Cook Strait ferry from Wellington via Picton. It is an 1 1/2 hour drive from Nelson.

We encourage car sharing with other conference delegates. It can be a lot more fun and it's better for the environment! 

If you are flying, we recommend booking early. Flights can become expensive and connecting flights can be difficult to find a few months out.

Accommodation

The first three hotels have rooms and/or special rates set aside for our conference guests and are located in walking distance to the conference. When booking, just let them know you are attending the Organic & Biodynamic Winegrowing Conference.
