History
The Taranaki Emergency Services Ball was established in 2014 in an attempt to celebrate the work that the Taranaki Emergency Services do. There is a strong focus on building relationships while socialising with other first responders in a more relaxed environment than the “normal” front line situations we often find ourselves in. This event has proven to be a huge success for strengthening relationships in our first responders as well as a hugely valuable way to ensure that our own mental wellbeing is taken care of.
Each year, a local Taranaki charity or not-for-profit is selected to support, all profits from Ticket Sales and Auctions are donated to the chosen cause.
The Taranaki Emergency Services Ball welcomes all first responders, from Police, Ambulance, Fire and Rescue Helicopter crew to Hospital staff, physiotherapists and healthcare professionals that help in the aftermath of incidents in Taranaki.


The 2025 Emergency Services Ball
The 2025 Emergency Services Ball will be held at The Devon Hotel on the 22nd March with doors opening at 7:00pm.
You’re sure to be entertained with live music from the local, legendary band ‘Faultline’ together with live & silent auctions during the night, raising much needed funds for our chosen charity ‘Taranaki Retreat & Waimanako’. Supper and one “welcome” drink is provided.
Dust off the tux, polish the tiara and come along for an evening to mingle with your fellow Emergency Services crews from around Taranaki.
Purchase your tickets today from our website listing.
