On a stormy Wellington night, neon flickers across the Embassy Theatre’s marble halls and rain dances off the tops of the Cuba Street Bucket Fountain. This is a city that hides its best stories in plain sight.

With this self-guided audio tour, peel back layers of history as you wander from glamorous movie premieres to wild public art and everything in between. Uncover scandals, surprises and scenes that escape most visitors.

Which global superstar drew riots along Courtenay Place for a single red carpet walk? What secrets have disappeared with stolen buckets? Why did a famed director threaten to never film here again over a midnight mishap?

Step through celebrity chaos, rebel artists, jazz hauntings and unscripted city drama. Let your footsteps carry you from golden balconies to fountain-side pranks, seeing Wellington as it truly pulses beneath the surface.

Ready to chase the city’s quirks where film legends and fountains meet? Press play and let the magic begin.
