Audio Tour
Wellington 2021
Paula Van Beek
Do you find it hard to know what you are looking at? Wonder if you are looking the ‘right’ way?
You are invited to take an Audio Tour of The Performance Arcade, with a free self-guided tour that allows you to experience this amazing art event in a whole new way. Starting at the main Arcade site, the tour winds you along the Wellington waterfront through various sites. You will need to bring your own wi-fi enabled smartphone, and a pair of headphones to stream the audio experience straight into your own ears. Look for the Audio Tour symbol around the Arcade site and along the Wellington Waterfront.
