Canvas & Cocktails

A creative night out with a touch of glamour, this Larnach Castle event pairs painting, cocktails, and canapés in one of Dunedin’s most iconic settings. Guests will be guided through creating their own artwork inspired by the Castle Gardens, with all materials provided and no previous painting experience needed. What makes this one stand out is the mix of elegance and ease — it’s polished enough to feel special, but still relaxed, social, and genuinely fun. Whether you come with friends, a date, or on your own, it’s the kind of evening that gives people permission to slow down, get a little creative, and enjoy the atmosphere of the Castle in a different way.
