About Pukekohe Town Square
Pukekohe Town Square was built in response to the town’s rapid population growth, creating a central outdoor space for socialising, events and everyday use. Roulston Street’s northern end was converted into a pedestrian mall, with large shade trees planted to provide cover for the tables and seating below. The playground and water features make it a popular stop for families.
A monthly community market brings together fresh produce vendors, artisan bakers, plant stalls, flower sellers and local food businesses. Seasonal events including children’s activities and public concerts use the square throughout the year. It’s the most prominent civic gathering space in the Pukekohe town centre and the main venue for community programming in the CBD.
