Event Details

It’s full steam ahead this May with LIVE Day! Join MOTAT for a sizzling day of hands-on fun and discover how steam can power a train, hop aboard for a ride or two and take part in activities that bring the heat.

Visit the historic pumphouse and see the awe-inspiring beam engine from 1877. It was one of the most advanced of its kind anywhere in the world and supplied clean water from Western Springs to the residents of Auckland.
With live entertainment, food and beverages plus endless activities – there’s a little something for everyone at every LIVE Day.
