For the Auckland Heritage Festival 2025, Purewa Cemetery has added a brand-new tour to our Heritage Tours app showcasing the sporting legends of Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland and Aotearoa New Zealand. From Empire Games athletes to leading F1 racers, we'll take you on a journey through time, remembering the lives and achievements of people who excelled in their sports.
The Purewa Heritage Tour App uses GPS to guide you around the park-like grounds while showcasing audio and visual media of every person you visit. Suitable for all ages, the tour is ideal for a spring day and gives you an opportunity to enjoy the natural beauty and serene setting of Purewa.
