Women's Lifestyle Expo New Plymouth

The Women’s Lifestyle Expo – WLE for short – is a unique experiential event dedicated to the world of modern women. Held annually at the TSB Stadium in New Plymouth, a picturesque coastal town on the west coast of New Zealand’s North Island, the expo is organised by NZME Holdings Limited – a well-established company with extensive expertise in media and publishing. In addition to New Plymouth, the WLE takes place in several other cities across the country and is part of a nationwide series of events with broad appeal.

Designed for women of all ages, the expo offers an inspiring space to explore, experience, shop and unwind – a day that engages body, mind and senses alike. At its heart are contemporary themes such as fashion, beauty, health, indulgence, home living, craftsmanship and sustainable lifestyle. Visitors can discover premium cosmetics, jewellery, fitness and wellness products, as well as handcrafted pieces, designer items and unique gift ideas.

Exhibitors from a wide range of industries showcase their latest products and services, with a strong emphasis on quality, innovation and personal value. Highlights include interactive zones such as the Hair Styling Lounge, the Beauty Pamper Lounge and the Makeup Lounge – inviting guests to enjoy tailored moments of self-care. In the popular Taste Zone, regional delicacies are available for sampling, while the Artisan Craft Zone and Fashion Zone inspire with creative trends and original finds.

The expo experience is rounded off with prize draws, mystery goodie bags, mini massages, makeovers and engaging activities. More than just an exhibition, the event serves as a social hub for women curious to discover something new – whether attending alone, with friends or family. The focus is on women who value style, wellbeing and inspiration, and who appreciate shared moments just as much as individual experiences.

Bringing together local businesses and national brands under one roof, the Women’s Lifestyle Expo creates a space where New Zealand lifestyle, entrepreneurship and female perspectives come together in a distinctive way. The modern, centrally located TSB Stadium offers spacious exhibition areas and is easily accessible – by car, public transport or a short walk from the city centre. New Plymouth, renowned for its stunning beaches, vibrant art scene and green parks, provides the perfect backdrop for an event devoted to all things beautiful, meaningful and unique.

The Women's Lifestyle Expo will take place on 2 days from Saturday, 06. September to Sunday, 07. September 2025 in New Plymouth.
