Hospitality New Zealand provides its members with all the tools and resources necessary to thrive when big events like Pink are in town.
Whether or not you’re a fan of her music, Pink’s recent trip to our shores provided a real boost to not only our visitor economy, but the hospitality industry, too.
The concerts the American popstar put on in both Auckland and Dunedin were a blessing for our sector, with an influx of domestic visitors booking out many hotels and flooding into cafes, bars and restaurants.
The performances, which drew huge crowds, are a real reminder that hospitality, major events and the visitor economy are closely intertwined and all benefit from one another.
Hospitality is a significant contributor to economic activity and employment in New Zealand. The sector directly contributes $6.9 billion to New Zealand’s economy, and employs 149,000 people – who all work relentlessly to provide an exceptional experience for their customers.
At Hospitality New Zealand, we understand the wider, important role that the hospitality industry plays in our society – not solely the economic returns, but also through fostering connections, bringing communities together, and providing real value to the visitor experience.
On behalf of our members, we take our role as a champion for the hospitality industry seriously. We tirelessly push for what our members need most to thrive in the here and now, whilst looking to the future to champion ideas and initiatives that will generate long-term success.
