2027 ITINERARY

Far Out 2027 is divided into two parts. During registration you can decide to join the entire trip, or either half.

The first half allows you to experience the core, tech-focused  agenda in three days: meet NZ's top high-growth companies, fly on a dedicated Air New Zealand charter jet from Auckland to Dunedin with a lunchtime stopover in Wellington, and drive 4x4's offroad all the way across Otago, using old gold mining trails to reach Queenstown.

The second half is where the 4x4 offroad adventure really takes off.  We drive through some of New Zealand's most exciting terrain,  including a stay near Mt. Cook at the Hermitage, and as a result we are significantly capacity constrained for that part of the trip.
