We’re delighted to announce that we’ve received resource consent for our Auckland Surf Park. Located in Dairy Flat, New Zealand’s first surf park will provide world-class sport, recreation, hospitality and tourism amenities that celebrate Aotearoa, its surfing heritage and culture, and the area’s rural character. With a significant focus on sustainability, the masterplanned community includes a co-located Spark New Zealand data centre and 7-hectare solar farm. Notably, excess heat from Spark's data centre (planned to be powered by renewable energy, including on-site generation from the solar farm) will be harnessed to warm the surfing lagoon year-round – a world-first. We’re thankful for all the support we’ve received to date, including from leading organisations and athletes who believe in the surf park’s potential to enhance wellbeing, and deliver an iconic destination for locals, Kiwi surfers and visitors to New Zealand. Subject to further regulatory approvals being received, construction is expected to commence in late 2024, ahead of opening to the public in 2027. To learn more, visit https://www.aventuur.com.

Great idea to heat the water with the data centre’s cooling system. Bravo Jordan Gosling heads up.

Congratulations Nicholas Edelman, Rupert Partridge and the entire team at Aventuur. There are a lot of surf parks being developed all over the world, but the vision here for Auckland - the technology, design, sustainability elements, not to mention the experience for NZ's aspiring surfing community - means this is going to be something truly special. Can't wait to read about the first construction update.

Great lateral thinking here. So many wave pools being designed but the water temps are never considered. The latest one here in Sydney is freezing. Great work.

Love the solar farm <> water warming! Genius :)

What will you be doing to gain good will amongst the locals? I hope that you will contribute more than traffic to the Dairy Flat community 🤠 Auckland Council Maybe you could use this as an opportunity to upgrade the all too-important Lucas Creek bridge!
