Release the child within and experience New Zealand's quirkiest theme park. Voted by AA Tourism as a must-do Kiwi experience The Waterworks is a theme park with a difference.

Inspired by the ability to create something new out of something old our attractions are made largely from recycled materials and are powered by water.
