Activities for rangatahi (young people) in New Plymouth at Zeal

Zeal Taranaki is a dedicated youth centre in the heart of New Plymouth, located in the Mayfair building. We have a dedicated dance/rehearsal space, and a chilled out cafe area. Here’s what we’ve got on offer!

Hangs

On Tuesday – Friday, 3.30-5.30pm, we run free afternoon hangs for young people. We provide a chilled out, safe environment with Xbox, food and Wi-Fi, and our youth workers are trained to provide additional care if needed.
