In May, the prestigious Jaguar Land Rover awards came to the Assembly Ballroom at the Toitoi Arts & Events Centre in Hastings, a venue that perfectly matched the elegance and prestige of the occasion, and of the JLR brand.

Michelle and I were there to capture the evening. Armed with our Canon cameras, we worked the ballroom, documenting the night's festivities, the laughter, the applause, and the memorable moments that unfolded.

The Jaguar Land Rover awards night wasn't just a ceremony; it was a celebration of the dedication, hard work, and passion that dealerships across New Zealand bring to the table. These awards acknowledged excellence in various areas of the automobile industry - from sales and customer service to innovation and sustainability. In essence, it was a night that reflected the values Jaguar Land Rover strives for globally - excellence and customer satisfaction.

For those unfamiliar, Jaguar Land Rover is a juggernaut in the world of luxury vehicles, representing a blend of British charm, innovative engineering, and unmatched refinement. In New Zealand, the brand has carved a niche, being synonymous with quality, luxury, and performance. The company has a strong presence here, with several dealerships under its belt, each dedicated to providing customers with an experience as luxurious as the vehicles they sell.

The Assembly Ballroom was buzzing as attendees, including industry professionals and VIP’s mingled, sharing stories and experiences under the soft glow of the chandeliers. The evening's program was packed with highlights, including speeches by key figures in the Jaguar Land Rover New Zealand network and the presentation of awards, to name just a few.

Many thanks to Jaguar Land Rover New Zealand and to Lewis and Glenn at Events Direct for having Michelle and I along to capture the evening!
