Auckland and upper North Island: auckland@balletfoundation.org

We are planning to roll out this programme in Christchurch & Dunedin

Being an En Pointe Patron is a great way to enjoy a closer involvement with both the RNZB Foundation and the Royal New Zealand Ballet (RNZB) and connect with like-minded people and dance enthusiasts at our events throughout the year.

The En Pointe Patrons initiative began in Auckland in 2020 and in Wellington in 2022. Each Patron gifts $2,000 annually, with half of the donation going to support special projects at the RNZB and half invested in the RNZB Foundation’s sustainable fund.

To date our Patrons have donated over $100,000 to RNZB projects that enhance the skills of the company’s dancers, choreographers and designers; take ballet to the wider community through schools and access programmes; and help in getting the RNZB onto the international stage.
