At orange and green level the standard cancellation fees will apply as per our Conditions of Hire Agreement. If programmes are cancelled in red level (due to another COVID outbreak) this will be on a case by case basis.
The staff at the Napier Aquatic Centre have the New Zealand Pass Verifier App on a device and will use this to ensure everyone entering the facility is scanned and verified as double vaccinated.
