Wētā Workshop Unleashed
Wētā Workshop’s movie magic attraction is also a fully themed venue.
Unleashed's one-of-a-kind, fully themed event spaces are defined by Wētā Workshop creativity and are perfect for events of all sizes.
Whether it’s a business event, awards evening, cocktail function or special celebration, Unleashed is where movie special effects bring events to life. We can take our events activities off-site too.
From concept to pack down, our crew can flex to your ambitious ideas and craft bespoke events that defy expectations. With special access to the artists and creators at Wētā Workshop, guests can embark on an interactive movie tour, get hands-on with makeup and prosthetic effects, enlist characters to interact with guests or even feature a Wētā Workshop guest speaker—Unleashed invites you to let your imagination run wild.
