Read the full experience

Located in the heart of Alexandra, New Zealand's Central Otago region, Hub HQ offers a distinctive indoor adventure perfect for young thrill-seekers aged 10 to 15.

With a strict limit of 25 participants, this two-hour event creates a cozy, exclusive atmosphere tailored for preteens and early teens ready to immerse themselves in a safe yet exciting environment away from the usual outdoor pursuits Alexandra is known for. Alexandra itself is famed for its rugged landscapes, scenic vineyards, and outdoor pursuits like hiking and biking along the Clutha River, but Hub HQ brings something fresh—a fully enclosed, weatherproof venue where families don’t have to worry about the elements. This Halloween event adds seasonal flair with themed games, mouthwatering pizza, and costume contests that stir up a spirited community vibe. Participants compete for the best costume prizes judged on creativity and spooky appeal, turning the venue into a buzzing hive of laughter and friendly competition.

Located at 47 Centennial Avenue, Hub HQ is easily accessible from Alexandra’s accommodations and a welcome indoor alternative to Central Otago’s famously variable weather. What sets the Hub HQ Halloween Party apart is its focus on controlled group sizes and age-specific programming, which creates a comfortable social setting unlike general public events. Attention to detail—from the food provided to a strict sock-only policy for hygiene and safety—underscores the organizers’ commitment to a smooth, enjoyable experience that parents can trust. Whether you’re a local family or passing through on a road trip through Otago, this event is an excellent way for teenagers to meet peers, enjoy themed fun, and burn off energy indoors without sacrificing the adventurous spirit typical of the region. It's a unique offering in a town better known for its natural outdoor landmarks, adding variety to the Central Otago adventure palate. If your visit to Alexandra coincides with Halloween, booking ahead is essential due to limited spots. Hub HQ's Halloween Party is a fantastic way to introduce younger adventurers to the thrill of themed events tucked within one of New Zealand’s outdoor adventure hubs.
