Summer of Polo 

5 December 2024

Get set for a summer of polo fun!

Clevedon is the heart of polo in New Zealand. Here, polo reigns (reins) supreme, where visitors can enjoy the thrill of the game all summer long! 

Choose your polo event, between the free-to-attend Club tournaments and games or the prestigious NZ Polo Open.  Auckland Polo Club, Hololio Polo Club and Ryburn Park are all  nestled in the Wairoa Valley, our equestrian heartland. 

So pack a picnic, bring the children, a rug or chair to sit on and park up at one of these not-to-be-missed and free to attend weekend events, with finals from 12pm each Sunday. On weekends with no scheduled tournaments, club games are held at both Auckland and Hololio Polo Clubs.
