Accommodation

Oceania MathsJam Gathering 2025 will be held at Christchurch Park Accommodation, Function & Event Centre (250 Westminster Street, Mairehau, Christchurch, New Zealand).

 

For those wishing to stay on site, there are a number of options to suit your budget and privacy needs. Please note the accommodation will be booked upon request through our registration process, so is subject to confirmation from the OMG organisers.

 

All accommodation will be in ground floor, two-bedroom motel units positioned around a private garden area near the main event hall. Each unit comfortably sleeps up to four people, and features a kitchenette, bathroom, TV and heat pump. You may opt to stay on just the Saturday night, or on Friday and Saturday nights.

For $60 / night, we offer a single bed (twin share rooms) in a shared motel unit with another OMG attendee.

Private room

For $100 / night, book a private room (double bed) in a shared motel unit.

Whole unit

Private units are available for $160 / night.

Transport

Public transit

 

For those within the South Island, consider an inter-city bus trip to Christchurch. These will deliver you to the Christchurch Bus Interchange.

 

In Christchurch, you can use the Christchurch bus network (Metro) to plan your trip to OMG25. The 44 and the Orbiter bus routes both have stops near Christchurch Park.

Parking

 

There is plenty of free on-site parking at the venue.


There will be a Facebook event for OMG25 - feel free to use the discussion page here to arrange carpool with other attendees if you are comfortable doing so!

OMG25 is a catered event. Your registration price includes basic breakfasts, lunch on Saturday and Sunday, and a pizza dinner on Saturday night. We will also have fruit, snacks and juice / tea / coffee available throughout the weekend.

 

You are also welcome to bring along your own food – all on-site accommodation provides access to a kitchenette with microwave, minifridge, kettle and sink.
