Hastings is a large urban area in the east of the North Island of New Zealand. It is informally known as the city of Hastings, although it lost its city status during a reorganisation of New Zealand's regional and district councils in the 1980s. It forms part of New Zealand's "twin cities" with its near neighbour, Napier. Napier lies on the coast of Hawke Bay (confusingly, the bay is Hawke Bay but the region is Hawke's Bay), the large semicircular indentation on the North Island east coast; Hastings lies about five miles inland from it. Hastings, like many other nearby towns, was named for a British colonial leader in 19th century India.

Along with Napier, Hastings was badly damaged during a large earthquake in 1931, which saw much of the centre of the city destroyed. As with Napier, the city was largely rebuilt in the prevailing Art Dec style, and both centres are still noted for their 1930s architecture.

The Hastings District includes all the former city of Hastings, as well as the towns of Havelock North, Flaxmere, and Clive. In total, the Hastings District has a population of around 80,000, of whom a little over half live within the main urban area. Major industries in the area include horticulture (particularly fruit orchards) and vineyards - Hastings is at the centre of one of New Zealand's main wine producing regions.
