WHY VYC
Dedicated to private events
We focus exclusively on private events, no bar side gigs or shared spaces. This means systems, staff and spaces built around event from start to finish.
Flexible, event-ready spaces
Our venues are designed to adapt easily to your agenda, whether it’s seated dining, boardroom-style meetings, presentations or receptions.
Convenient Auckland location
Right in the heart of the Viaduct, with easy access to transport, accommodation and secure parking for guests.
Exclusive use guaranteed
When you book with VYC, the space is yours alone, no walk-ins, no diners, no competing bookings.
Practical planning support
We provide structured planning tools and experienced on-the-ground guidance so you can stay organised and confident throughout the process.
If I could give six stars, I would. We had our wedding reception at VYC, and from start to finish, the team was amazing to work with. Thank you especially to Jo and Carolyn for all your advice and flexibility before the event, and for being amazing hosts on the night. The food was outstanding, the cocktails were fantastic, the sound system and lighting all worked a treat. Thank you also to the staff members who served our ceremony pre-drinks and canapés - you took care of everything with grace and friendliness and we couldn't be more grateful.
John & Catherine's Wedding
On behalf of Ava and all our friends and family from Ava’s 21st on Saturday night, we just want to say a massive thank you. From the moment we arrived all of the staff were exceptional. So welcoming, nothing was a bother and they absolutely made the night! So many of our guests commented on the staff’s friendliness, the awesome venue you have set up there and the overall amazing vibe that made Ava’s birthday so very special.
Thank you again for the whole seamless process, although our family celebrations are done for awhile, your venue is always one I recommend to anyone asking!
Ava's 21st Birthday Party
What can I say? I don’t know how you do what you do but I’m very grateful that you do! Trying to organise the event from Sydney could have been a cluster. You made it a triumph. I’ll use this opportunity to formally thank you and your team for making me look like a star (no easy task) - the event was a huge smash. On behalf of the senior leadership team and the board, thank you for your professionalism and attention to detail - and most tellingly, for the way you all got involved on the night well beyond the requirements of the brief to make us and our guests feel welcome. John and I now want to find “a VYC in Sydney” (have you thought about opening another venue?!)
Please pass on my congratulations and thanks to your team, you made a massive contribution to the propagation of our brand and values. These things may sound trite, but they have always been of great significance to our group. I look forward - genuinely - to nailing the next one with your indispensable help!

Corporate Customer Event
I want to thank you for such a wonderful day on the 9th. Your staff were amazing, the CEO duly wowed by the venue and all the attendees raved about everything to do with the whole day. So, thank you all for making it so painless and perfect. We’ll definitely use you again and recommend you in a heartbeat.
