Join us for a guided tour with a difference! Discover the unexpected and intriguing stories behind the bags on display in our featured exhibition Carried Away: Bags Unpacked.

The bags themselves are a visual feast, but we've dug deeper and fallen down rabbit-holes to bring you the bigger picture of the life and times of these popular accessories. We guarantee that the De-tour stories start with bags, but who knows where we may end up?

De-tours are thirsty work and so they will conclude with a Devonshire tea at our 1929 cafe.

Saturday and Sunday afternoons, 10 - 11 and 17 - 18 August. Bookings essential.

The video on social media shows the installation of the new airbridge to connect 277 Broadway with 309 Broadway above Mortimer Pass, between Gillies Ave and Broadway, explains the orientation of buildings and civic artist Peata Larkin's three panels on 309 Broadway referencing the past, including a cabbage tree. The skypool is a 36m by 6m skylight above the entertainment and leisure precinct at 309 Broadway, combining light and water features. A Scentre spokesperson said this was "a real investment in design. The scale and size of this skylight structure is unlike anything our team has delivered to date." Drew said seven green walls were being developed where 25,000 plants would feature and "all of that 80 to 90 per cent native." A Scentre spokesperson said the mixture of New Zealand and Australian native plants would include arthropodiums Matapouri Bay, metrosideros Tahiti, blechnums silver lady and lomandra tanika.
