Registering for Sporting Events
You can register for any number of sports. Once you have registered for a sport you can enter as many events in that sport as are indicated on the information page for that sport, but it is your responsibility to make sure that your registered events do not clash.
You only pay one fee for each sport, so you can enter as many events for each sport as are permitted at no extra cost. Again please refer to the individual sport information pages for further information.
Registration for a sport requires you to choose the sport, event, level, age group etc. Some sports also require you to fill in additional personal information regarding your current grade, current time or wether you are aiming for a record in this event.
Once you have registered for a sport, it shows on your registration summary. Until you have completed payment, you can delete your registration for a particular sport.

Registering for the paid Arts & Culture Events
Registration for the paid Arts & Culture events requires you to choose Arts & Culture. Once you have registered for the event, it shows on your registration summary. Until you have completed payment, you can delete your event selection. After you have paid you will be able to log in to your registration and change your personal choices until close of registration.
Registering for Parties
Registration for Parties uses the EventFinder website separate to registration. Registered participants and supporters have been sent an email explaining how they can buy these at a special price. Refer to the parties section for details on how to purchase these tickets online.
For registered participants and supporters that purchased party tickets as part of their registration, the party ticket purchase(s) will be automatically loaded for you on to your Outgames ID (Snapper) card.
New Zealand Visa Requirements
Following your payment a registration confirmation will be issued which can be presented to the appropriate authority within your country with your visa application, should you require a visa to enter New Zealand. This document will not guarantee a visa being issued, and 2nd AsiaPacific Outgames accepts no responsibility for this process.
Information on visitor visa requirements to New Zealand is available from the Immigration New Zealand website
Should your visa application be declined, you may apply for a refund of the registration fee. Please contact the Registration Team including your request, name, date of birth, email address and proof of the declination.
An administration fee of $50.00 NZD will be deducted from the refund.
