Here it is folks!

 

Geekzone and Quic social @ DataVault Auckland
18 Oct 2025 11AM - 2:30 PM

 

Please register now for this meetup. 

 

Here are the highlights:

 

🤝 Catch up with fellow community legends (and probably some folks you’ve argued with online)
🛰️ Tour the DataVault data halls - because who doesn’t want to see where the internet lives?
🍕 Food & drinks supplied - just not in any of the data halls, we don't want to kick anyone out!

 

🔒 Datacentre rules (aka, how not to get yeeted at the door):
✅ Fully enclosed shoes only - no jandals, no bare feet, no exceptions
❌ No food or drink inside the data halls
📜 Acceptance of DataVault’s conditions of entry (house rules) below is mandatory - read ’em or be denied entry faster than a packet drop on CG-NAT

 

Please register now for this meetup. 

 

The crew hopes to see you there!

Under active consideration. Is there a deadline or number limit?

Looking at going. Am I better off taking ubers from the airport or getting a rental car for the day? What's parking like near Datavault?

Google Maps shows a few parking spots on the street (not many), and a paid car park across the street.

 

Also, Gemini tells me this:

I'm just going to catch the airport bus (non-stop to skycity) - then uber from there, will be cheap and no hassle with drinking/driving/parking

The bridge by it normally has quite a few parks on it over the weekend.
