Seriously, it is what I would do. Ring 'em and ask 'em.
Or if you don't want to wade through sixteen gazillion "press" options and listen to five hours of muzak, go call in in person - unless they're after you for summat...

One, two free, floor!
He's right... you have to ring and ask. Public gallery is just that - for the public. It's part of the open and fair justice system...

Ok thank you guys! Was planning on having a look tomorrow. There is a case that particularly disgusts me so I want to see justice done and also I am on uni holidays with nothing to do!
Yes
If you are going to the High Court in Auckland they have the cases and associated court rooms listed in the forum when you walk in. I assume it will be the same for other courts.

Be aware the judge has the final say on who is or is not allowed in his/her courtroom.
Verbal outbursts, wearing gang insigna or throwing gang signs from the the public gallery will most likely get you kicked out or held in custody for contempt.
However;
Eyeballing the fucker in the dock and staring them down is perfectly acceptible
