Something a little different is coming to The Stables Matakana.

Thursday 2 July, we're hosting an intimate evening of live classical music, a beautiful bistro menu, delicious drinks, and the talent on stage is seriously impressive.

Nocturno Duo pairs two of Auckland's most decorated young classical musicians: Yune-Sang Yune, a Korean-Kiwi flautist who made her professional debut with the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra, and Lora Kurusa, a Hungarian classical guitarist, sponsored artist of acclaimed luthier Domenic Roscioli, and winner of the New Zealand International Classical Guitar Competition.

Together they perform an evening of classical and romantic repertoire, flute and guitar, up close, in one of Matakana's most beautiful venues.

Doors open from 6PM with a bistro menu on offer.
Music from 6.45PM
Early Bird tickets from $29.
Limited seating. A perfect winter Thursday in a stunning setting.

One thing we absolutely love about celebrations at The Stables is seeing the kids having just as much fun as the adults 🤍

While everyone’s inside enjoying speeches, dancing, good food and a few drinks, the little ones are usually out on the lawns making memories of their own.

Running around the gardens.
Playing lawn games.
Swinging on the surf swing.
Throwing planes across the paddocks until the sun goes down.

There’s just something really special about a venue where everyone can properly relax and enjoy themselves.

From weddings and birthdays to family celebrations and community events, The Stables was built for bringing people together.

If you’re planning something special and want a space that feels relaxed, welcoming and full of life, we’d love to help make it happen 🤍

Ever noticed the events people talk about afterwards are never the stiff, overplanned ones?

They’re the ones where people stay longer than expected.
Where the speeches actually land.
Where the food keeps coming.
Where someone says “we need to do this here again next year.”

That’s exactly the kind of events we love hosting at The Stables.

From business celebrations and brand launches to birthdays, fundraisers, weddings and corporate nights, every event here is built around atmosphere, good food and making people feel looked after from start to finish.

And honestly? That changes everything.

Located in Matakana, just outside Auckland, with flexible indoor and outdoor spaces, on-site catering and an experienced events team available 7 days.

Planning an event and not sure where to start with music?

One thing we’ve learnt at The Stables is that the right band or musician can completely change the energy of a night. From acoustic sets during dinner through to full dance floor moments later in the evening, live music always brings something special to an event.

We work alongside some incredible local vendors and can help point you in the right direction when it comes to bands, DJs, musicians and entertainment for your celebration.

Our Events Team is here to help bring all the pieces together and make the planning process feel easy from start to finish.

Planning a birthday, wedding, corporate event or private celebration? Reach out to The Stables Events Team today and let’s start creating an unforgettable night together.
