Meetings for 2025

Evening meetings are held at the Mt Albert Senior Citizens Hall, 3B Wairere Avenue, Mt Albert, Auckland, on the first and third Tuesdays of each month from February to November. At each meeting there are sales tables, and "items of interest" are displayed. A guest speaker and display are the main event of most meetings. The night wraps up with tea, coffee and biscuits. Visitors and new members are welcome. Doors open at 7.30 pm, and meetings start at 8.00 pm.

Red Dot Sales are at the same venue on 4 Saturdays during the year - doors open for viewing at 11.30 am and the sale gets underway at 12.30 pm.

This year we are also holding monthly meetings on Sunday afternoons at Ferndale House, 830 New North Rd, Mt Albert. Start time varies due to venue availability so please check the details below.

The APS Annual Exhibition for 2025 is moving to September and will be at a new venue - keep an eye out for more details.

The final Tuesday event of the year is the Christmas Party on the first Tuesday of December. There is live music, food, fun and a Prizegiving, and local stamp clubs are invited to come and celebrate with us. Bring a plate to share.


Copies of the Programme will be sent out in late January or early February, this schedule may change without notice.

Don't forget the Browns Bay and Ellerslie stamp fairs which are held on a regular basis. These fairs need your participation to be successful. Check the details in either the Stamps and Coins section of the New Zealand Herald or the APS Newsletter.
