The Octagon is an eight-sided plaza in the heart of Dunedin’s CBD. Surrounded by the larger octagonal Moray Place with George Street running through its centre, most of the area is a pedestrian reserve with grassed and paved sections.

A hub of public transport, significant buildings located here include the town hall, public library, art gallery and St Paul’s Cathedral.

First laid out during Charles Kettle's survey of the city in 1846, the statue of Scottish Poet Robert Burns was erected in 1887.

Today the Octagon hosts a weekly street market and the popular ‘Writers Walk’.

A great place to party, eat lunch or explore, The Octagon caters to all sorts! On a Saturday night this place goes off with Scarfies drinking the night away and during the weekday suits nibble on their lunch. A great place of history, well worth exploring.
