PRANZ runs a number of events every year, there are regional mini-meetups around the country, training opportunities, plus a main national meetup once a year. These meetups are for PRANZ members. 

Details of events are listed in our calendar below and are also on the PRANZ Facebook Page. Ticketing is normally done through Humanitix and you can follow us there to be notified when events go live.  

About PRANZ meetups

These meetups are for autonomous packrafters, they are not safety courses or intro days for people who have never packrafted before unless explicitly stated. You’re expected to take responsibility for your own safety and participate in the safety of the team on your trip. You’ll need to bring all your own pack rafting and safety equipment, food, and suitable clothing for the location and conditions. See this page for places to buy/hire gear.

The PRANZ volunteers who organise these events do the job of setting the venue and facilitating people into groups appropriate to their skill levels. Trip leader(s) will be appointed, but these are not guided trips; you need to have the basics all sorted and take responsibility for your own safety!  If you don’t have the skills, then you should go on a whitewater safety course, or get friends to help you learn the basics.

To attend a meetup, you’ll need to join PRANZ and register for the event through the event link.
