This winter, a globally acclaimed exhibition lands in Tāmaki Makaurau — and with it, an extraordinary opportunity to experience the work of one of the world’s most enigmatic and era-defining artists. The Art of Banksy, opening on the 7th of July at the Hunua Rooms in the Aotea Centre, brings together the largest collection of authenticated Banksy artworks ever assembled — over 150 pieces including original prints, canvases, and one-off sketches. For the Banksy-curious and diehard fans alike, this is a chance to see pieces that are typically hidden away in private collections. And for those keen to win their way in, a giveaway is on the cards with four premium tickets up for grabs — enter here.

Fresh from a two-year residency in London and stops in 18 cities worldwide, The Art of Banksy promises an immersive, revelatory experience. Beyond his best-known works like Girl With Balloon (shown here in four colour-ways, including the rare Gold Edition), the exhibition delves deeper — showcasing personalised prints, early sketches, and fragments from projects like Dismaland. Many of the pieces on display were gifted by Banksy to friends and collaborators, making this not just an exhibition, but a glimpse behind the curtain.

Whether you’re drawn to his sharp social commentary, his irreverent humour, or the mystery that still surrounds him, this is a rare and timely opportunity to engage with work that continues to challenge, provoke, and inspire. A cornerstone of Auckland’s winter cultural calendar, The Art of Banksy is not to be missed — book your tickets
