Special events
From bridal and baby showers, to vow renewals and anniversary parties Highwic is the perfect venue for all of your special events. Highwic offers a truly unique and memorable venue for your next special occasion.
The Ballroom, built in the early 1880s, is a truly elegant space with kauri panelling and an 1890s grand piano that can be played. While the historic Billiard House is a more informal space that you can really make your own. Both of these spaces can accommodate up to 50 people for a seated dinner or up to 90 people standing for a cocktail reception.
For larger events, Highwic’s Tennis Lawn can accommodate a marquee for up to 150 people. The Croquet Lawn, which can be set up with our collection of vintage lawn games, provides space for your guests to relax on picnic rugs and enjoy the award-winning heritage gardens.
