Schedule
The following is a broad outline of the schedule of major events leading up to and beyond the start of GODZone. This is only intended as a guide to proceedings, is subject to change and more specific information will be provided in the Newsletters that are released periodically in the build up to the event start. As ever, we encourage you to book accommodation and flights as early as possible. The event is running at a very busy time of year for Queenstown (forget that, Queenstown is busy ALL the time) so be proactive in getting yourself organised – particularly in regards to accommodation.

International team return transport to Queenstown Airport
Note: We strongly recommend that domestic teams who are flying into Queenstown or Christchurch airport arrive no later than Wednesday 22nd February 2017 so that any weather related delays can be avoided. International teams should plan to arrive a day or two earlier to ensure that all international connections are made and any baggage issues addressed. Please take time to look at the transport options available on the International Teams page.
