Commercial Renovation Taupo Starlight Cinema
Project Works
The Starlight Cinema had long been a fixture of the Taupo community. The vision for its return was ambitious: a full site refurbishment with the installation of four separate movie cinema spaces — delivering a modern, premium experience while honouring the venue's place in the town's heart.
The project required careful coordination across multiple trades and tight scheduling to meet the school holiday opening milestone.
Construction & Fitout The team undertook the complete site refurbishment, transforming the existing space to accommodate four separate, purpose-built cinema rooms — each designed for an immersive audience experience.
Specialist Paint Finishing Wade Construction's paint specialist team completed all interior finishing work, bringing the spaces to life with a refined, polished result befitting a modern entertainment venue.
