The Metabolic Health NZ Summit 2026

The Summit is held at AUT North Campus, 90 Akoranga Drive, Northcote, Auckland. Sessions run in the AF building, room AF114, with registration and catering in the adjoining foyer. 

Day one, Friday 13 November: registration from 8.30am, programme starts at 9.00am and finishes at 4.20pm. 

Day two, Saturday 14 November: arrival from 9.30am, programme starts at 10.00am and finishes at 4.30pm. 

The full programme is available on the event page above. 

Carparks 2 and 7 are pay–by–plate and open to visitors. Carpark 2 is closest to the AF building. Mobility parks are available on campus. If you’d rather not drive, the Akoranga busway station is about 150 metres from campus, with a covered pedestrian overbridge across to the North Campus.

Early bird pricing has been extended until 30 September 2026. After that, standard pricing applies. 

In-person tickets close on 28 October 2026. Livestream tickets close on 11 November 2026, which gives us time to get access links out to everyone before the Summit starts. 

Tickets are non-refundable. If you’re no longer able to attend, you’re welcome to transfer your ticket to someone else. Just email info@metabolichealthnz.org with the new attendee’s name and email before the event so we can update the register. 

Yes. A two–day livestream ticket gives you access to sessions as they happen. Note this is live only, so you’ll need to be watching at the time. 

Yes, both days will be recorded. You can buy recording access on its own, or add it to a live stream ticket. Recordings are released after the Summit and we’ll email ticket holders with access details once we’ve confirmed the turnaround with AUT. Access doesn’t expire, so you can watch in your own time.

By purchasing a ticket you also consent to being photographed or filmed at the event, and to those images being used in Metabolic Health NZ material. If you’d prefer not to appear, let us know before the event and we’ll make sure the team is aware on the day.

We haven’t registered the Summit with a specific professional body. Our audience spans a range of professions and applying to each of those bodies isn’t something we’re able to take on at this stage. Many bodies do recognise external events for CPD, so it’s worth checking directly with yours about how they’d like it logged. All attendees receive a certificate of attendance, which you can use as evidence.

Unfortunately, the AUT student rate is only available to currently enrolled AUT students. The Summit is sponsored by AUT, and that rate sits within their sponsorship of the event rather than being a general student discount, so we’re not able to extend it to students from other institutions.

Tea, coffee and water are available on arrival both days, and lunch is included with in-person tickets. Lunch is served grazing platter style, with options chosen with metabolic health in mind. 

We don’t serve morning or afternoon tea. Instead we’ve built hydration breaks into the programme, which aligns with our metabolic health philosophies. 

If you have dietary requirements, please include them when you purchase your ticket. We’ll pass these on to our caterers and take every care to make sure you’re looked after on the day. If your requirements are complex, you’re welcome to bring something along to supplement what’s on offer. 

You don’t need to bring anything specifically. A refillable water bottle is worth having, since water is available on arrival and there are hydration breaks through both days. Otherwise just yourself, and something to take notes with if that’s your thing.

Email info@metabolichealthnz.org and we’ll come back to you as soon as we can. We’re a small team and the inbox isn’t monitored daily, so please allow a few days for a reply. 

AUT North Campus is wheelchair accessible, with mobility parking and lift access to the venue. If you have specific access requirements, email info@metabolichealthnz.org and we’ll sort the details with you before the event.
