TEDxAuckland
TEDxAuckland is an independent, annual TEDx event held in Auckland, New Zealand. Like other TEDx events, it runs under a free license from TED and follows TED’s guidelines. It began in 2009 and remains active today, organized by Elliott Blade, who has continued leading the event after earlier editions sold out.
Over the years, TEDxAuckland has hosted a mix of speakers and performances. The fourth edition, held in August 2013, featured local chef Robert Oliver. It also included performances by King Kapisi, poet Grace Taylor, singer-songwriters Joseph and Maia, and the New Zealand String Quartet. In May 2016, the event hosted 28 speakers at Shed 10 on Auckland’s waterfront.
Accessibility: Talks are in English, with optional multilingual subtitles and transcripts. Attendance is optional via registration.
