Auckland is the home of Air New Zealand Fashion Week 2005, which runs from 18 to 21 October at the Viaduct Harbour Marine Village. The event exposes and celebrates our unique culture to international media and buyers.

Auckland City acknowledges the economic, creative and dynamic contribution fashion and fashion designers make to Auckland and New Zealand. The council’s sponsorship of Air New Zealand Fashion Week is a testament to Auckland City's commitment to supporting the fashion industry and the creative sector.

Auckland City started as a major sponsor of Fashion Week in 2000 and this year has stepped up to become a strategic partner, recognising the growth of the industry and the support the council can provide.

Air New Zealand Fashion Week 2005 is aligned to the theme of "artistic/creative" in the Auckland City events strategy and represents a signature event which brings economic benefit and international profile to the city.
