Silo Park

This free public space located in Auckland’s Wynyard Quarter gets its name from the abandoned silos that tower around the park’s grassy field. During summer months, locals gather here to enjoy evening outdoor cinema, as well as live performances that include dance, music and theater. 
Silo Park is also known for its eclectic markets, which include the Friday Night Market, which kicks off at 5 p.m. during the summer months and the Saturday and Sunday Markets that open at noon. Travelers will find a unique collection of food stalls, artists, street performers, musicians and plenty of fun at these popular gathering spots that are perfect for picking up souvenirs.
