PLANING A VISIT TO WHOA! STUDIOS?
We are excited to host you at Whoa! Studios, located in West Auckland’s studio district. We are Auckland’s only family destination within 3 minutes of a train station. See the Auckland Transport site about their 99c child fares on the weekend. Plan your trip here.
If you are travelling by car you can use the Whoa! Studios parking lot, accessible from Henderson Valley Road, however please note onsite parking is limited. The Auckland Council carpark on Smythe Road is available to patrons during weekends only. During school holidays parking is available on Henderson Valley Road and in the Henderson High School carpark. All parking is free of charge and at your own risk.
Or catch the train as we are only a short 3 minute walk from the platform!
