About Te Taiwhanga Taiohi – East Auckland Youth Space

The youth space is not just a place, it's a community of young people coming together to share, connect, and make memories. Born out of a successful pilot that saw over 10,000 students from local colleges using the space, it was clear there was a need for a permanent space where young people can feel safe, supported, and free to socialise in East Auckland. The youth space in Botany Town Centre is open seven days a week with study spaces, social nooks, creative spots, and game zones.
