About this item

Host your next event at Gisborne's only oceanfront private hire function venue. Valued at $1,199!

The Mana Moana Lounge seats up to 120 guests seated or 150 standing, and opens onto a wide balcony with 180-degree views over Midway Beach. Whether it's a social event with the best sunset in town or a team day with a view that beats any office, this is a special way to bring people together by the sea.

The prize is eight hours' exclusive use of the lounge, with:
• Furniture, including tables, chairs, leaners and stools
• Kitchen access, with plates and cutlery (glassware needs to be hired separately)
• AV: screen, projector, 1 microphone and a wireless built-in sound system

Bring your own catering, drinks, decorations and entertainment, so the event is entirely yours to shape.

Good to know:
• Catering and drinks aren't included, and there are no bar or kitchen staff.
• The hirer looks after setup, pack-out and rubbish and recycling removal. Midway cleans the lounge afterwards.
• The lounge isn't suitable for children's, 18th or 21st birthday parties.
• The lounge is unlicensed, so it's BYO. Selling alcohol to guests needs a special licence from Gisborne District Council, applied for in advance by the hirer.
• Start time is flexible, and every event must finish by 12.30am.

Valid for 12 months from when it's issued.

This item supports SuperGrans Tairāwhiti as part of our fundraising campaign with R&V 2026.
