Upcoming events.
Test Match Breakfast
Save the date for one of the most special Wanderers CC traditions – the Test Match Breakfast with guest speaker, Lou Vincent.
Join me for a Q&A breakfast as I dive into some of the most memorable moments of my career—starting from a young lad who fell in love with the game to my time with the BLACKCAPS. I’ll share the highs, the hard-won lessons, and a few untold tales from my experiences and tours that shaped me as both a cricketer and a person. But more than that, this is a chance to celebrate resilience, humour, and growth, and to give an inside look at the Lou Vincent who, over the years, found a new kind of strength and connection to Northland life. Expect some laughs, a bit of honesty, and maybe even a story or two that my friends haven’t heard… yet!" —Lou Vincent, Former BLACKCAP

Breakfast at the Bason
Join us at the Basin on Friday the 25th of February for our Traditional Test Match Breakfast as we celebrate the Blackcaps Test against South Africa
The first morning of any test match is always one of anticipation and hope. This is especially so when we have as our home venue the Basin Reserve, the sixth oldest test ground in the world, and recently voted in the top ten test match venues worldwide.
To celebrate the start of the Wellington test match, Wanderers instituted a first morning test match breakfast. This annual event has been an institution at the Basin for over ten years.
The club has been fortunate to have as a life member Bryan Waddle, who is able to use his contacts as a world renowned cricket commentator, to get interesting and varied speakers.
