A considerable amount of work has gone in behind the scenes developing our online presence recently. But now we think it’s been kept on ice long enough. Welcome to our new website.

We hope you enjoy searching around the new site. We’re all very proud of the new look and want to thank the IAC project team for their efforts. The site has lots of great features:

Easy booking. We’ve made things easier to book an experience here. Be it holiday programmes, meeting rooms, annual passes or general admission – it’s all easy to get to here.

Our story. There’s not just an overview of our experiences here. We’ve also included some history about where we’ve come from and why the enduring bond between Christchurch and Antarctica is so important to both places.

Our explorers. The legacies of early Antarctic explorers are so important to our work – without their ambition and determination the world would be a very different place.

Fresh news. There is always a lot going on at the International Antarctic Centre. We’ll keep you up to date here.
