New Zealand Olympic Museum Gallery

 

      

The Olympic Museum Gallery opened its doors in June 2008 and is housed in the TSB Bank Arena in Queens Wharf.  The gallery is managed and operated by the New Zealand Olympic Committee.

The collection also includes the prestigious Lonsdale and Sir Lance Cross Memorial Cups, Olympic winter memorabilia, items from the New Zealand Commonwealth Games in 1990 and audio accounts of Olympians recalling their Games experiences.
