β β β β β Loved it loved it loved it. Fantastic, we go from the UK every 2 years and get dressed up for the weekend. So much to see, do and join in at the Art Deco Festival. It's in Feb so be prepared for the sun and heat. Vintage cars, planes and air show right over the beach. Big bands with guest singers play in the Sound Shell, there's street entertainers, dance groups and bands all for free.

β β β β β Had an amazing tour with this organization. It really bought the past to life and added a lot of value to our understanding and the enormity of the earthquake in the 30's and the ensuing rebuild.
They show a great little movie about the earthquake and what it changed.
Also, the gift shop has a wide selection of on theme goods.
Only minor comment is that there is a distinct underrepresentation of New Zealand made goods.
See the buildings pointed out and explained attached.

β β β β β Visited Gin Trap on arrival in Napier. Took in a couple of shows.
Visited bar on the beach excellent dance entertainment. Enjoyed looking at many old cars etc. Did miss the real atmosphere of Art Deco, the crowds and all the canceled events but will be back again next year.

β β β β β A wonderful place filled with such lovely volunteers that are very willing to share their passion and history of their Art Deco city. The store is a bit of a treasure trove, you never know what you might find, there are so many bits and bobs I wanted to leave with. The short video is perfect if you've only got 20-30 minutes to spare, otherwise if definitely recommend the guided walk. It's incredibly informative and gives you so much insight to the city you've already been strolling through. I didn't get a chance to take a vintage car tour but one of the guides was kind enough to spin me around the block, and what a beautiful car it is. You feel like you've been transported back in time.

β β β β β Went on a tour with tour guide Bev. She was lovely and very clearly spoken and knowledgeable. A wonderful way to see a Napier and experience an introduction to Art Deco in Napier. Iβm hooked and my parents loved it. An easy walk for them also. A great gift shop with some nice souvenirs.

β β β β β We had an amazing time exploring the art deco precinct on the walking tour and understanding the many changes that followed the Feb 3 1931 earthquake in Napier. Our guides Eleanor and Bev were gracious and very knowledgeable about Napier and its history. We were left feeling impressed with the resilience of Napier residents and their spirit to rebuild. Will definitely be back soon for the vintage vehicle tours soon!
