Discover a new sound installation by Rob Thorne (Ngāti Tumutumu, Ngāti Tamaterā, Hauraki Tainui) - musician, performer, composer, researcher and academic.

Conceived for the Sculpture Trail, He Rau Porotītiti ki te Whenu Mārama o tētahi Pūngāwerewere invites visitors to slow down and experience the landscape through listening.

At its heart are taonga pūoro, the traditional musical instruments of Māori. These instruments carry deep cultural and environmental relationships, and in this work their sounds are distributed through a sixteen-channel system positioned throughout the ngāhere. As you move, the work shifts - sounds appear to travel, respond and settle within the forest around you.

Rather than a single fixed listening point, the work unfolds differently depending on where you stand, how you move, and the living sounds already present in the landscape.

Following a blessing led by Ngāti Manuhiri, the installation is now part of the Brick Bay Sculpture Trail.

We invite you to experience this remarkable work for yourself - a space for stillness, curiosity and connection with te taiao.

Brick Bay is open 7 days.

✨ A little spring clean is on the way.

We love being open seven days a week, but once a year we need a few days behind closed doors to get stuck into the jobs that are tricky to tackle while we’re busy welcoming guests.

So from Monday 17 – Thursday 20 August, our team will be cleaning, fixing, refreshing and making a few improvements around Brick Bay.

Then it’s back to business as usual. We’ll be open again from 10am Friday 21 August - fresh, clean and ready for the season ahead.

See you Friday. 🌿

A rare tasting of time.⁠
⁠
On Friday 31 July, we’re opening the cellar for Wine, Oak & Time - an intimate winter tasting of eight Brick Bay reds built to last.⁠
⁠
Guided by Cameron Douglas MS, you’ll taste rare vintages of Pharos and Martello Rock, including wines dating back to 2005.⁠
⁠
Each pour will be matched with a small plate by Head Chef Cam Cook, designed to lift the wine and reveal what time, oak and careful cellaring can do.⁠
⁠
With very limited quantities remaining, this may be one of the last chances to experience these older wines in a guided tasting.⁠
⁠
Tickets include a welcome cocktail, eight wine pours and matched small plates.⁠
