Hoani Waititi Marae is an urban marae located in West Auckland, New Zealand. The marae acts as a community hub for the Urban Māori population of West Auckland, and is the site of Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Hoani Waititi, one of the first Kura Kaupapa Māori established in New Zealand. Some of New Zealand's largest annual Waitangi Day celebrations are held at the marae, and feature major Aotearoa musical artists, and food and craft stalls.
