📍 Howick, Auckland
Howick Leisure Centre runs gym, group fitness, a dedicated martial arts room used by seven community groups, and courts for basketball, volleyball, badminton, and table tennis. School holiday programmes and birthday party hire round out the offering.
Nice, clean facility to host an event. I was just here for a Warrior wrestling show and I've been to a few wrestling events in the past held at different locations but this venue by far is the best. Also sufficient parking and great location. Would recommend both the venue and catching a Warrior wrestling show.👌🏾💯
🏆 Family Action Verdict

The centre's community warmth carries through to casual visits, with the group fitness classes described as a regular social highlight for parents.

“Awesome venue for sport events, went there for a judo fun day tournament and the size was perfect for 3 sets of mats. Toilets were in decent size and clean. There a nice area to set up a small catering service. There are plenty of parking free of charge within the facility.”
