The Hawke's Bay Herald-Tribune was a New Zealand newspaper which published from 1937 until 1999.
Covering the Hawke's Bay region, it was based in Hastings.
The merger was prompted by difficulties the Herald faced after the 1931 Napier earthquake in which the company building was destroyed resulting in the paper's printing services being undertaken by its Hastings neighbour during the last six years of its existence.
Although their building was severely damaged by the 1931 earthquake, they were in a better position to cope than the Napier paper, and took over its printing.
