Tauranga Domain is a park and sports stadium in Tauranga, New Zealand. The origins of the park go back to 1873, when Tauranga residents applied to the Native Minister for a domain to be set aside. Five years later, the park was extended to the south. In 1881, the northern part was set aside for a secondary school.[1] War memorial gates commemorate local men who died in World War I, and the gates are registered with Heritage New Zealand as a Category II item.[2]
