TEDxWellington is a local, independently organized event in Wellington, New Zealand, that operates under the license from TED, a global set of conferences under the slogan "ideas worth spreading." TEDx events are designed to help communities, organizations, and individuals spark conversation and connection through local TED-like experiences, following the TED conference format but independently organized by volunteers.

At TEDxWellington, speakers from various disciplines share their innovative ideas, inspiring stories, and unique perspectives in short, powerful talks. These events aim to foster learning, inspiration, and wonder, and provoke conversations that matter within the local community. The content and design of each TEDxWellington event are unique and developed independently, but all of them have features in common, such as the TEDx Talks video and live speakers combining to spark deep discussion and connection among participants.
