New Zealand Sports Hall of Fame:
Moving to Waipa "Home of Champions"

The NZ Sports Hall of Fame will be based at the Grasssroots Trust Velodrome, which is already home to Cycling New Zealand and a regional hub for High Performance Sport.

The complex is ideally situated for visitors with a bike park, playground, cafe, bike shop and visitor centre on site, and direct access to the Te Awa Cycleway and Sculpture Walk.  The Hall of Fame will be reimagined as a modern, educational, and interactive exhibit that celebrates achievement, inspires future generations, and connects communities — both through the exhibit and engaging physical and virtual experiences. Alongside the exhibit, will be school programs and an extended events program.

Unique Sports engagement experience

The Grassroots Trust Arena will also be home to a completely new and exciting sports experience for all ages, but particularly aimed at youth. Whether its rhythm, balance, mental focus or reaction speed, the experience will create greater learning outcomes, and give tamariki and rangatahi  transferable foundations to thrive in any sport they choose. Unique experiences will be combined with technology to engage, educate and inspire.

Stay Tuned

The Hall of Fame’s new chapter starts in 2026. Until then, you can keep an eye out for special events and updates at the Grassroots Trust Velodrome.
