Join us for A Night for Armani — a special adults-only comedy fundraising evening bringing our community together for laughter, kindness and a very special little boy. A Night for Armani is a community fundraising and rare-disease awareness night at the Oamaru Opera House on Sunday 15 November.
Armani is a six-year-old boy from Timaru, affectionately known as “Zebra Boy Armani”. He lives with autism and complex, ultra-rare medical conditions. His family is preparing to travel to UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital in San Francisco for specialist evaluation and care.
Come along for a memorable night of comedy while helping support Armani’s medical journey. Every ticket purchased helps his family take another step forward. Together, we can show Armani and his family that they are not alone.

Find your people. Feel at home in the Young Chamber Network! Keen to get out, meet some new people and try something different? Young Chamber Network is a relaxed, welcoming community for people aged 18+ who want to meet new faces, make connections and maybe learn something new along the way. You don’t need a fancy job title. You don’t need to own a business. And you don’t need to be a Chamber member.
Bring some mates, come with colleagues or come solo. You don’t need to know anyone to join us.
Taking the awkward out of networking | 26 November 7:30am – 8:45am
Networking can feel a little awkward, especially when you’re walking into a room full of people you don’t know.
That’s where Beth Park from Onsite Insight comes in.
Beth will show us some simple, practical ways to start conversations, meet new people and make genuine connections, without the awkward small talk.
And this is just the beginning.
Coming up in early 2027, we’ll be getting out for a round of Frisbee Golf, teaming up for some friendly competition, then heading to The Hydro Bar for some Young Chamber Network drink specials.
Coming on your own?
Feeling a bit nervous about turning up solo? Get in touch with Stacey before the event. She’ll make sure there’s a friendly face waiting for you when you arrive.
