Chinese functions hugely successful at Alexandra Park

Auckland’s popular function centre at Alexandra Park is enjoying considerable success with its Chinese functions thanks to its attention to detail and good marketing,” says Joel Reichardt, Sales & Marketing Manager at Alexandra Park.

“Chinese Aucklanders are a big part of Alexandra Park’s story and it has been a long association. In turn we know how to host wonderful Chinese occasions and our reputation is only growing in that space,” he says.

It’s an association helped by the fact that Auckland’s leading Yum Char restaurant, Grand Park, has been operating from Alexandra Park for many years.

Recently, Alexandra Park’s commitment to the Chinese culture was highlighted during Chinese New Year, with its dedicated race night celebrating the Year of the Rooster.

“We got great reviews about the comprehensive Chinese buffet our own chefs put together for Chinese New Year. Going forward, we are only too happy to do something similar for Chinese groups who may want to hire our function facilities,” he says.

He says as well as plentiful Chinese-themed hospitality, Alexandra Park is only too happy to organise the likes of traditional entertainment if required.

In fact, Alexandra Park caters for all menu tastes and has tailor-made packages designed to suit any event. The staff are event professionals totally dedicated to ensuring all conferences, business meetings, private dinners or parties are successful.

“What appeals to a lot of people is our flexibility. We can do big or small, catering from 20 to 700 guests and we’ve got eight function rooms. In fact, we’ve got nine if you include our spacious stables complex which is great for businesses or organisations wanting something completely different for their next function venue.”

Centrally located in Epsom, Alexandra Park has ample free parking on site and is just 15 minutes to central Auckland and 20 minutes from Auckland’s airport

Mr Reichardt says ongoing improvements to the function facilities and menus have been key to Alexandra Park’s success in the highly competitive sector. Each year Alexandra Park hosts nearly 1,000 functions and that excludes its Friday race nights.

“Alexandra Park will undoubtedly get a further boost with the opening of our new ‘urban village’ development now under construction. It will see the arrival of more cafes, restaurants and bars, and will create a great buzz. What’s more having the Blues rugby team’s training centre here and watching them literally train out front is another point of difference.”

He says the Alexandra Park functions team really prides itself on providing solutions, tailoring menu and beverage packages, ensuring all audio-visual requirements are easily taken care of, as well as offering expert advice and great value for money.
