A venue that makes a difference
By hosting your event at HomeGround, you’re part of something bigger — a vibrant community where every booking helps us support people in need across Tāmaki Makaurau.
When you choose HomeGround, you're investing in more than a great venue, you're helping us create a more compassionate, connected Auckland.
Located at 140 Hobson Street, it’s not just a building—it’s a place where people come together to learn, grow, and belong.
By choosing to hire one of our spaces, you’re helping Aucklanders access food, housing, healthcare and support services. You’ll be sharing the building with Mission staff, volunteers, and tenants who live in the permanent apartments above.
We also offer in-house catering prepared onsite by our talented chefs, another meaningful way to support the Mission’s mahi while enjoying fresh, delicious food made right here at HomeGround.

“Hosting our workshop at the Mission’s beautiful rooftop event space was an easy decision for Edge Impact. We have worked with the team previously, and they have made planning and organisation seamless thanks to prompt and clear communication. We appreciated the handy list of catering suppliers, as an example. Not only is the Mission’s vision and purpose meaningful to us and our guests, but the building and event space is beautiful, comfortable and practical: video and sound work seamlessly, the furniture is perfect and the fully equipped kitchen is very handy. If you are looking for a central Auckland, fair priced, practical and meaningful venue for a large meeting, event or workshop, then I strongly recommend the Mission's event space”
