Requests to be seated with people you know can be stated during the ticket purchase process. 

THE TRANSPORT
Due to the nature of this event being at a mystery location, transportation is included in the ticket, which includes pickup before the event and drops off at the completion of the event back to the pick-up locations. 
There will be two pickup points on in Taupo towncentre and one at the Kinloch Marina (which must be booked when you buy your ticket). The exact pickup points for each location will be sent out via email prior to the event. 
Buses will be leaving at 5.45pm for those with Grand Gatherer tickets and 6.30pm for General Gatherers. Please be ready and waiting for the bus 10 minutes before it is due to leave. 
If you would prefer not to take the bus, please contact info@gatheringevents.co.nz. 

THE DRESS CODE  
A little bit fancy! It’s a night out so feel free to glam up. Dancing shoes are a must but leave the stilettos at home (trust us!). If it is cold, bring a jacket to put on while you are waiting for the bus.
