Queenstown has always attracted people who think a little bigger. Entrepreneurs chasing bold ideas, creatives seeking inspiration, and professionals building something meaningful while surrounded by mountains that remind us why we slow down and take a breath.

Mountain Club was created with those people in mind.

Tucked in the heart of town, Mountain Club is Queenstown’s only global members club. But more than a space, it’s a community designed for connection. The kind that starts with a good conversation over coffee, turns into a collaboration, and sometimes becomes a lifelong friendship.

Members come from all corners of the world and all walks of life. Founders, investors, creatives, remote workers, and locals who simply enjoy being around curious, interesting people. What brings them together is a shared mindset: life and business are better when experienced together.

Inside the club you’ll find places to work, meet, and unwind. But the real magic happens in the moments between. A spontaneous introduction on the balcony. A dinner that turns into a new partnership. A room full of people who believe great ideas don’t happen in isolation.

Mountain Club hosts 300+ events every year, as we move into the cooler months, the events calendar is ramping up with a series of gatherings designed to bring people together in fresh and interesting ways.

From April through June, members can expect everything from intimate speaker evenings with global founders and investors, to curated dinners, panels on world environment day, AI meetups, run clubs, reform pilates, fortnightly wine tastings, live podcast recordings for New Zealand Fashion Week and relaxed social events such as salsa, jazz and classical music, where the conversation flows as easily as the wine. Think thought-provoking talks, creative sessions, and the kind of evenings where you arrive knowing one or two people and leave with a handful of new connections.

Because at its core, Mountain Club isn’t just about events or a place to work. It’s about cultivating the kind of community that makes Queenstown such a special place to live. You can discover more about our brilliant community through the Mountain Club Podcast.

For those curious to experience Mountain Club, why not come and experience an open house event? Queenstown membership starts at $995+GST per year; including invitations for you and your guests to events, access to our members bar and balcony on Beach St, personalised connections to build your community in Queenstown, along with access to plans for workspace and 100+ global affiliate clubs. See you at the club. Paddy, Pete & Mountain Club team.
