Friday 3 October 2025
The Cube ASB, Tāmaki Makaurau
The event where wāhine Māori changemakers, doers and leaders come to connect, recharge, and be uplifted.
Deep kōrero. Real connection. Space to be wāhine.
This event sold out quick last year - don’t wait!
This is not your average event.
Te Mana o Ngā Wāhine is a kaupapa Māori event that centres and celebrates wāhine Māori - not just as professionals, but as people.
It’s a day of big kōrero, new connections and space to show up exactly as you are.
We don’t do panels for the sake of it. We don’t network to tick a box.
We come together to hear real stories, hold space for each other, and to remind ourselves we’re not doing this alone.
This is where wāhine Māori leadership, connection and success gets redefined - on our own terms.
The feeling inside the room..
Courageous kōrero.
We don’t shy away from the real stuff - expect conversations that challenge, uplift and make you feel something.
Stories, not keynotes.
We want to see new speakers in front of audiences, so our speakers are from all walks of life, sharing lived experiences, bold truths, and moments that mirror your own (if you were here in 2024, you know!).
Room to breathe.
We don’t pack the day. There’s space for deep listening, reflection, and moments to just be.
Whakawhanaungatanga, not networking.
Forget awkward intros. We’re here to connect through kōrero, shared kaupapa and holding space for one another.
Mana-enhancing, always.
From the tone of our kōrero to the way we hold space - everything is designed to create belonging, and uplift you.
The stage is set for wāhine like us.
Our 2025 speakers bring so much more than a title.
They bring lived experience, bold truths, cultural connection and the kind of insight that can only come from walking the path.
You’ll hear wāhine who have:
Reimagined life in their communities
Carved new paths in business, leadership and whānau
Held space for others while rebuilding themselves
Led from places of resilience, wairua and unapologetic vision
Who’s on the mic in 2025?
We’re excited to announce our lineup of wāhine Māori changemakers, doers and leaders very soon. Stay tuned!
You deserve to be in rooms like this.
You don’t have to be the most accomplished, or the loudest voice in the room. You don’t need 10,000 followers or a fancy title on LinkedIn.
This isn’t that kind of event.
At Te Mana o Ngā Wāhine, you’re not expected to show up as anyone other than yourself.
Whether you’re leading a kaupapa, raising tamariki, building a business, or finding your way back to you who you are - this space was made for you.
It’s a day to connect, be reminded of your own magic, and feel the strength that comes from being surrounded by wāhine who get it.
Tickets available from $129.
Your ticket includes morning tea, lunch, connecting & kōrero.
Earlybird prices are limited and this event will sell out.
