Zeal Wellington

Welcome to Zeal Wellington, a safe and inclusive space located at 55 Cuba Street in the heart of Wellington, New Zealand. As an establishment and point of interest, we are dedicated to providing young people like you with opportunities to connect, learn, and overcome challenges.

At Zeal Wellington, we believe in creating a whānau (family) atmosphere where you are seen, heard, valued, and accepted. Our team is committed to walking alongside you with authenticity, compassion, and aroha (love) no matter what you may be facing. Whether you're looking to hang out, meet new people, or develop new skills, Zeal Wellington is the place for you.

Our range of activities cater to rangatahi (young people) in Wellington. Located in the James Smith Building on Cuba Street, we offer after-school hangs, creative programs, all-ages gigs, a rainbow group, guys' group, and our very own social enterprise cafe, Stories Espresso Bar.

Join us on Tuesday to Friday from 3-5pm for our free afternoon hangs. Our youth workers are trained to provide additional care if needed, ensuring a chilled out and safe environment with Xbox, food, and Wi-Fi. On Friday evenings from 6.30pm to 10:30pm, our center is open for Hangs, and our Street Youth Workers are out and about in the city, offering support and connection to young people.

In addition to our recreational activities, Zeal Wellington also offers a range of programs designed to unleash your creativity and help you thrive in the working world. Whether you're interested in photography, live show production, barista skills, or dance, our programs provide hands-on experience and guidance to help you develop your talents.

If you're passionate about music, our recording studio is the perfect place for you to take your beats, rapping, and music production to the next level. Learn how to record your own music and gain valuable skills that can take you far in the industry.

Zeal Wellington is part of a wider network of Zeal locations across New Zealand, including Taranaki, West Auckland, Kāpiti, and Hamilton. Wherever you are, Zeal is here to support you on your journey.
