It is always a delight to be back at Ponsonby Central

The Sapphire Room is a creative space that is all about Eat, Drink, Shop, Support Local. It is the perfect location to kick off the first of the General Collective Christmas markets in style.

Forget what you think you know about Christmas shopping or markets – this is an experience like no other.

Gather your friends before the silly season sets in and enjoy browsing our carefully curated boutique offering of ‘the best of the best’ across homewares, fashion, toys, jewellery and artisan produce – all produced by local brands and local creatives.

Grab something special from Wellington jeweller Luisa Farah who combines precious metals, wood and stone to create stand-out statement pieces. Get summer ready with stylish, made to last, oversized pool floats from &Sunday (they are so fun!), or pick up a gorgeous colourful bag from Zay, hand woven in Myanmar - using upcycled plastic or rattan they are strong, durable and one of a kind.

It is also the perfect opportunity to stock up on delicious artisan products from the likes of Cook & Nelson and enjoy a coffee, cocktail or a bite to eat at one of the many eateries rustling up delicious internationally inspired food. If you’ve never experienced a General Collective market or explored Ponsonby Central – come and see the difference. Ponsonby Central now has new underground parking available.
