The event will be televised and livestreamed.
"As New Zealand's Queen and much loved Sovereign for over 70 years, it is appropriate that we mark her life of dedicated public service with a State Memorial Service and a one-off public holiday," Ardern said.
"Queen Elizabeth II was an extraordinary person, and I know many New Zealanders will appreciate the opportunity to both mark her death and celebrate her life."
Ardern said the public holiday allowed people to pay their respects and for communities around the country to come together and pay tribute with local events.
"The decision to hold a one-off Public Holiday in the Queen's honour is also in line with similar holidays in the UK and Australia, and is in keeping with what is an historic event."
The death of the Queen was announced on Friday (NZT) and her funeral will be held at Westminster Abbey on Monday, September 19.
A period of national mourning started immediately after the Queen's death was announced and will continue until the date of the National Memorial Service.
Ardern previously said New Zealand's memorial service would be held at some point after the funeral in the UK - and turned its mind this afternoon to setting the date when it meets today as well as whether to have a public holiday.
A one-off national public holiday has been confirmed in Australia on September 22. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese the move was "in honour of the life and service" of the late Queen and would coincide with a memorial service.
BusinessNZ chief executive Kirk Hope told RNZ's Morning Report businesses had already suffered losses from the pandemic and the government had to be careful when making a call that would impose more costs on local businesses.
"Certainly, I don't think there's any problem with a memorial, I think there'll be a lot of people who will be wanting to attend that but to add another public holiday, as I said, at a time when many businesses have struggled is a bridge too far."
Even a half-day public holiday would still be costly for businesses, he said.
"We prefer not to have that."
King Charles has announced the day of the Queen's funeral - September 19 - would be a bank holiday in the UK.

What does the Old Testament state?
'And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
Isaiah 2:2-4 KJV
If this is the Biblical teaching of the future World scene - whats our place now?
For the wages of sin is death; but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 6:23 ASV
What should we do now to gain that kind of life? Are we to earn a Christian future by our merits or is there also a need to explore what is the purpose of God too?
'What doth it profit, my brethren, if a man say he hath faith, but have not works? can that faith save him? If a brother or sister be naked and in lack of daily food, and one of you say unto them, Go in peace, be ye warmed and filled; and yet ye give them not the things needful to the body; what doth it profit? Even so faith, if it have not works, is dead in itself.'
James 2:14-17 ASV
Jesus' teaching calls us to a Crossroad in life:
And he [Jesus] said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned.
Mark 16:15-16 ASV

The Best Honey in Auckland: Don Buck Honey's Waitakere Forest Blend!

This batch won the silver medal at the June 2022 Apiculture NZ Honey Awards for Runny/Liquid honey in the darker colouration category (and Don Buck Honey was the only winner north of Rotorua).
During the lockdown of Nov-Dec 2021 while many Aucklanders were worried that we might not be allowed to leave town for a summer break at the beach, our honeybees were toiling away to forage nectars from the forests of Auckland’s very own Waitakere Ranges.
This honey is a dark and beautiful batch of runny honey, and according to a laboratory pollen analysis comes mainly from Tawherowhero and Acacia flowers with a little Manuka and Rewarewa.
500g pots. I'm selling them for $13 each or four (4x) for $45. Also available as part of a variety combo of four pots for $40, and in the Mixed Box of twelve pots for $110. Also have a limited number of 2kg minibuckets for $40.
Honey should be stored at room temperature and can be returned to a runny and smooth consistency if needed by warming it gently and slowly in hot water. If you like your honey soft-solid with a creamy texture rather than runny let me know - some of the pots have crystallised.
