Welcome to the New Zealand Rocketry Association
NZRA members have one thing in common. They love rocket launches !
With the advent of Rocket Lab launching satellites into space from New Zealand we have seen a surge of interest from Kiwis keen to learn more about rocketry and educators wanting to inspire a new generation of students into maths, science and engineering.
What ever your interest in rocketry we are keen to help you in your journey. Visit our FACEBOOK group for the latest news.
National Launch Day February 2nd 2019
National Launch Day brings rocket enthusiasts together from all over the country to fly their latest creations. The event is open to the public annually on the first Sunday in February, weather permitting, for a small entry fee. Hundreds of people attend our launch site near Taupiri open between mid-day and 4pm. Taupiri is 1 hour 15 minutes from Auckland. Kids and adults can build and fly a 'have a go rocket' on the day. Event details and pre-purchased tickets are available at EventFinder Tickets here....
