Dragon Sculpting
Workshop
First craft your own dragon
Let your imagination take flight these school holidays in our fiery Dragon Sculpting Workshop, inspired by How to Train Your Dragon! This fun and creative hands-on session is perfect for young dragon tamers aged 6 - 14 who are ready to bring their own legendary creatures to life.
In this 60-minute workshop, kids will explore the basics of character worldbuilding - imagining where their dragon lives, what it eats, its magical powers, personality quirks and more. These creative choices will guide their sculpting, helping them build a creature that’s truly one-of-a-kind.
Using simple materials like tinfoil and plasticine, young makers will learn beginner sculpting techniques and leave with their very own palm-sized dragon to treasure (or train).
Spots are limited, so book now before they fly away!
Children must be accompanied by an adult.

Our tours and creative workshops depart from Wētā Workshop Unleashed
Level 5, 88 Federal Street, Auckland
Opposite the Sky Tower.
For public transport options, please visit the Auckland Transport website.
The eternal question for intergalactic travellers! While we currently don’t offer dedicated spacecraft parking, we do have plenty of terrestrial car parking options at SkyCity. If your craft is taller than 2.1 metres or has a cloaking device, we recommend teleporting down.
We also offer SkyCity parking validation for anyone who purchases a tour, creative workshop or spends over $49 on retail in the Wētā Cave. Validation will reduce the hourly rate of parking.
Happy landing!
Please arrive 10 minutes before your tour and creative workshop starts. You can check in at the Wētā Cave ticketing desk.
Yes! Photography is welcomed at Wētā Workshop Unleashed. There’s also the opportunity to receive a free video within the tour space, so you’ll be able to take home a fun memory of your experience.
Yes, there is a short break before you begin your workshop.
Our tours are currently offered in English and Mandarin, with translated tours also available on our app in French, German and Japanese. Download the app in store on arrival or ask our team for assistance.
As for Klingon, Elvish, or Na'vi—we're working on it. Stay tuned for future updates as we aim to cater to speakers from every realm.
Absolutely! Though just a heads up–some of our experience is horror themed and parental guidance is advised for younger children. Guests have the option to skip the 'horror house' within our horror workshop if they wish.
Some
materials used throughout our tour and workshops may trigger allergic reactions in some
guests. These materials include latex, silicone and foam. Please email us if
you have any questions.
Yes, we have rentable lockers available for you to store any medium to large sized bags, including suitcases, starting from $4. You can store your luggage up to 24 hours.
We get it—once you step into our world, it’s hard to leave. While we’d love to offer permanent residency in our castles and spacecrafts, local zoning laws and our resident creatures make it tricky.
Why not take a piece of the magic home instead? Visit the Wētā Cave for souvenirs to transform your home.
