The past fortnight at Mountain Club.

It started with Walk and Talk, a coffee and a loop from Five Mile with our Co-Owner and Head of Membership Paddy Kluts, and our monthly AI Meet-Up, an open conversation on what’s emerging in AI and what’s actually working.

Our Final Ski Tour of 2026 closed out the ski season with a picnic and spring vibes. Back at Beach Street, w**emaker Yannick Fourbet poured his organic Central Otago w**es from Domaine Rewa - P Fourbet and brought along his ceramics as The French Potter. Run and Recover followed with a social 7km run from Five Mile with Alexander McCall, then sneak peak at the new Hyperbaric Chamber and post run recovery Sauna session at O-Studio Queenstown.

Coffee Jam returned with Startup Queenstown Lakes, an early start for founders and creatives hearing three quickfire talks from Wolf Coffee Roasters, Liv King and AquaWatch. Our Tourism Roundtable then brought operators together to talk about where high-end travel in the region is heading. Jessie Healy ran a small-group Lunch & Learn at Five Mile on choosing ad channels and knowing when ad spend is actually working. That evening, three startups pitched their value propositions, growth potential and financial projections to a room of investors and entrepreneurs at Mainland Angels Pitch Night.

Alongside it all, REFORM QUEENSTOWN and the WATERSHED SAUNAS kept their weekly rhythm, and we look forward to getting into the biking season.

Tasting Session with Mora Wines || Thursday 22 October || 1730 - 1900 || Mountain Club Beach Street

Mora is a name we know and love, a Lake Hayes favourite for long lunches and a glass in the sun at Mora Wines & Artisan Kitchen. This time the team is bringing their w**es to us. They’re made from 90 hectares of established vineyards in Bannockburn and Pisa by the Skeggs family, who have more than 25 years of growing and making w**e in Central Otago.

The name comes from the Latin for “to linger or take pause,” which fits a Thursday evening at Beach Street pretty well. Cellar Door Manager Vicki Robinson will lead the tasting, taking you on a journey through both Central Otago and Mora w**es.

Complimentary for members, guests welcome with a $20 donation to the MC community fund.

Mountain Club Global Membership gives you access to more than 100 clubs and hotels worldwide, including Citizen Kanebridge, a private members’ club for established professionals, with a focus on property, finance and investment.

Citizen Kanebridge has two clubhouses. In Sydney’s C*D, it sits within the Royal Automobile Club of Australia, moments from Circular Quay, with refined dining, historic architecture and curated events. It has also recently opened CK Lounge Norwest, a return to where Citizen Kanebridge began more than two decades ago, where members work, meet, host and spend time together.

Whether you have roots in Sydney or are just passing through, you’re welcomed into the Citizen Kanebridge community as one of their own. Like Mountain Club, it’s part of the Sonata Group, so you’ll be in familiar company.

Get in touch with [email protected] to find out more about Global Membership.

Lunch & Learn: Go-to-Market E-Commerce || Wednesday, 14 October | 1230-1330 | Mountain Club Five Mile

Jessie Healy doubled Mons Royale’s direct-to-consumer revenue as their Head of eCommerce Growth, and now runs Ecomm Rockets, buying Meta and Google ads for brands like Wonky Box, Videris Lingerie and Tony’s Chocolonely.

At this Lunch & Learn she’ll share how she picks the right ad channels for a brand, tells when ad spend is actually working, and decides whether to run ads yourself or bring in help, the same system she builds for physical product brands from newly launched through to high eight figures.

Small group, limited to 12. Bring a project and your laptop.

Entrepreneur Coffee Jam || Tuesday 13 October || 0700 - 0900 || Mountain Club Beach Street

If early mornings are your sweet spot for big thinking and better coffee, this one’s for you. Coffee Jam is back in partnership with Startup Queenstown Lakes. It’s designed for local founders, creatives and anyone shaping what’s next, and it’s a chance to connect without the pressure and start the day with conversations that count.

Startup Queenstown Lakes is covering the first 50 coffees, and we’ll be serving up three quickfire talks from local entrepreneurs. Each speaker gets five minutes to share what they’re building and why it matters, followed by a short Q&A to share asks, offers and ideas.

MC x Snow Machine VIP Artist Speaker Series is now live on The Mountain Club Podcast.

Snow Machine’s first ever edition happened in Japan in March 2020, the week the world went into lockdown. Five years on, it pulls over 6,000 Australians to Queenstown every year.

In our latest Mountain Club Podcast episode, Australian TV and radio presenter Danny Clayton sits down with NICKA, illy, and 𝗣𝗮𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗻 for a hilarious, raw conversation on live music, festival culture, and what makes Snow Machine last.

NICKA spent two decades in television news and weather (you may regognise him from the iconic Gold Coast Skeg Reports) before becoming a DJ. illy is an ARIA Award-winning rapper and one of Australia’s most beloved hip hop artists. 𝗣𝗮𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗻 has photographed every one of Snow Machine’s ten editions, and been a part of the festival’s growth and journey from the start. Together they trace the festival back to its nearly-cancelled first edition, unpack why Snow Machine keeps growing while other festivals fold, and debate AI’s place in an industry built on live experience.

Thank you Danny, Nick, Illy, and Pat for the stories and the great chats, and thank you to everyone who sat in the audience and asked the big questions. This is a hilarious, insider listen on live music, festival culture, and the Snow Machine story. Find The Mountain Club Podcast on Spotify, Apple and YouTube - Link in our bio.

COMING UP IN OCTOBER

October starts with our monthly AI Meet-Up, a space for open conversation on what’s emerging and what’s actually working. We’re then back at Coronet for The Final Ski Tour of the season, followed by coffee and a BBQ at the base, before w**emaker Yannick Fourbet pours his organic Central Otago w**es at our Tasting Session with Domaine Rewa - P Fourbet, bringing along his ceramics as The French Potter. Run and Recover follows with a social 7km run from Five Mile with Alexander McCall, then recovery with Rest & Rise Energy and Sauna at O-Studio Queenstown.

Mid-month, Entrepreneur Coffee Jam is back with Startup Queenstown Lakes, an early start for founders and creatives with quickfire talks from local entrepreneurs. Jessie Healy then runs a small-group Lunch & Learn on e-commerce advertising, sharing the system she used to double Mons Royale’s direct-to-consumer revenue.

Later in the month, James Bayly, former co-founder and CTO of 8AI, leads the first of a four-part AI Series Workshop for engineers and tech leads building agents and automated workflows into how they ship code. We welcome Mora Wines for a tasting session, and fivemilecentre comes alive for the After Hours Night Market. The Arts Hole has invited members to the collector preview of Mental Landscapes, the first New Zealand solo exhibition by international artist CABNOV.
