16th New Zealand Venture 2026
2025-12-30 00:00 - 2026-01-09 23:59 | NSW
Scouts Australia is sending a Contingent to the 16th Aotearoa / New Zealand Jamboree in December 2025 – January 2026.

Attending a New Zealand Venture is an outstanding introduction to International Scouting. Set in one of the most picturesque countries on the planet, Australian Scouts will be offered a program of outdoor adventure and cultural immersion that will deliver a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Dates

The Australian Contingent will depart on 28 December 2025 and return to Australia on 10 January 2026. An optional post-tour featuring a selection of thrill-seeking and cultural activities will also be offered to Australian Contingent members, returning to Australia on 15 January 2026.

Location

Phase One includes a choice of Expeditions stretching from the upper South Island to the middle of the North Island. Phase Two will be held at the Brookfield Outdoor Education Centre, one hour from Wellington.

Applications

Official applications to join the Australian Contingent to the 16th Aotearoa / New Zealand Venture will open on 8 January 2025 and close on 23 February 2025. Applications may close earlier if the size of the Australian Contingent exceeds the number of places available at the Venture.

In the meantime, you can submit an Expression of Interest and we will send you a reminder when official applications are about to open.

Venturer Scout and line leader applicants will need to nominate their top three Expedition preferences upon application. Expedition places will be allocated in the order that applications are submitted with deposit paid. To secure your preferred Expedition, applicants are encouraged to submit their application and pay the deposit as soon as possible after applications open on 8 January 2025. Expeditions will be allocated after applications close.
