What's On This September

Tuesday 1 September, 2026

Spring's here and September is shaping up nicely. There's a brand-new home for game day, a Father's Day draw that could cover your whole bill, pasta and Negronis, live country music every weekend and flash tattoos to round out the month. Here's what's on across our venues this September.

What's On This Month

Sports & Rec: A New Home For Game Day

Now open | Sylvia Park, Auckland

Sports & Rec has officially opened in Sylvia Park, and it's your new go-to for watching the game with a hefty side of socialising. With screens in every direction and a commentary booth or podcast studio, there's always a view of the action, while arcade games like foosball, pinball and more keep things entertaining between plays. The game day inspired menu is packed with crowd pleasers from garlic pretzel baguettes to ranch fries, and rotisserie chicken and all the trimmings. Whether you're watching the game, challenging the kids to foosball or catching up with friends for a meal, Sports & Rec is the place to be.

Rosie's Sunday Ink Is Back

Sunday, 27 September, 2pm - 6pm | Rosie's Red-Hot Cantina

Sunday plans, but make them permanent. On the last Sunday of every month, head to Rosie's Red Hot Cantina from 2pm to 6pm and choose from a selection of flash tattoos for just $40. Check Rosie's social stories prior to see the available designs and artists who will be doing the tattoos, then turn up and add your name to the list. Tattoos are first come first served and strictly 18+ - but kids can get involved with temporary tattoos while they wait.
