Step into the heart of Avalon, a suburb of Lower Hutt known for its unique blend of past and present. This is the heart of New Zealand’s television broadcasting, the place that brought iconic shows into millions of homes. Avalon rose to prominence in the 1970s when Avalon Studios were built on the land formerly occupied by market gardens. But Avalon isn’t just about screens. Step into Avalon Park, one of the largest playgrounds in Lower Hutt. It’s a perfect example of Avalon’s spirit – a place where families can play, and kids can explore. The park takes its name, as many of Avalon’s streets do, from the families who called this part of the Hutt Valley, home. Avalon Studios are still there, though the network television operations have moved on to Auckland. The tower, built in the Soviet-era style, is a beacon of Avalon’s past. It still dominates the landscape and is a reminder of the golden age of New Zealand television.
