About

Thank you message from Water New Zealand

Ka ora te wai, ka ora te whenua, ka ora ngā tāngata’

‘If the water is healthy, the land is healthy, the people are healthy’

Thank you to everyone who helped make the Stormwater Conference 2023 in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland such a huge success. We particularly appreciate the support of our exhibitors, partners and sponsors.

Over the years the Stormwater Conference has gone from strength to strength and 2023 was a record breaker, with almost 600 delegates.
It’s now clear that we need to take stormwater management seriously to ensure a more climate-resilient future.
With that I am already looking forward to welcoming you to Stormwater 2024 – this time in the capital city, Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington.

So please mark the dates (15 – 17 May 2024) and keep an eye out for updates. We’ll be bringing you more details over the coming months.
