Suffrage Day Garden Party at Alberton House with Helen White and Carmel Sepuloni

On 19 September 1893 New Zealand women won the right to vote. As a result, New Zealand became the first self-governing country in the world to extend this right to all women. Suffrage Day celebrates the aims of the movement for gender equality and, with so much going on at the moment, is a timely reminder that we can't stop the work just yet.

Labour has a proud history of working to empower women and we are keen to celebrate all that we've achieved, as well as contemplating the long road ahead, on Suffrage Day this year by throwing a Garden Party at gorgeous Alberton House in the heart of the Mt Albert electorate. So kick up your heels, put on your best garden party kit and join Helen White and Carmel Sepuloni to enjoy an evening of cocktails, canapés, live music and lively conversation.

We'd love to see you there!
