L&D Innovation & Tech Fest 2027 in Auckland: where to stay

L&D Innovation & Tech Fest New Zealand returns to Cordis Auckland on 22–23 June 2027, bringing together learning and development leaders from across Aotearoa and Australia. The event is staged alongside HR Innovation & Tech Fest, creating one of the region's largest gatherings for people, capability and talent professionals. Across two days, speakers explore AI-enabled learning, skills-based talent strategies, human-centred leadership and workforce analytics. The format blends keynotes, panel discussions and practical workshops with an exhibition area for learning technology vendors and training providers. Cordis Auckland sits on Symonds Street at the edge of the city centre, close to the University of Auckland and a short drive from Parnell, Newmarket and the Viaduct Harbour. Attendees looking for accommodation near the venue can choose from boutique properties on Symonds Street to larger hotels around Queen Street and the waterfront.
