The Mongrel Mob's 50th celebrations in Hastings have gone without incident, according to police.

A large number of gang members gathered from across the country for a memorial run and celebrations held at Te Aute Hotel on State Highway 2 last night, where the gang was granted a special liquor licence to hold the event.

Inspector Andy Sloan says both the memorial run and the hotel event were without any arrests.

"Everything went smoothly and there was great co-operation from the gang," he says. "They abided by all the conditions of their licence and it was a well-managed event."

Police say they were called to numerous fights across Napier and Hastings last night.
