Voting opened this week and runs until noon on Saturday, October 11. Residents will be voting for the elected positions of mayor, councillors, and Wānaka-Upper Clutha Community Board members.
This year’s "Highest Vote" campaign is encouraging the community to get involved, help lift voter turnout, and have a bit of fun by dropping their vote in one of 17 voting bins across the district.
The bright orange voting bin locations include high-altitude places such as Cardrona Alpine Resort, Treble Cone, and a special one-day opportunity at the Crown Range Lookout on Friday, October 10, tipped as the highest and most scenic voting box in Aotearoa New Zealand.
To have your say, complete your papers and return them by mail or to one of the district’s voting bins before voting closes.
Anyone who was not enrolled to vote could cast a special vote at QLDC offices in Wānaka or Queenstown.

- New World Three Parks.
- New World Wānaka.
- Hāwea Store and Kitchen.
- Treble Cone Ski Field ticket area (while open).
- Cardrona Alpine Resort ticket office (while open).
- Wānaka Library.
