Sky Tower Goes All Black For The Big Game
Sky Tower Goes All Black For The Big Game
This Saturday night the lights of the Sky Tower will be fading to black to support our boys, as they take on Italy, in one of the most anticipated sporting events of 2007.
This weekend, SKYCITY Auckland will be the place to watch the weekend's biggest sporting matches live, with the Vodafone Warriors vs. Parramatta Eels NRL playoff on Friday night and the clash between New Zealand and Italy's finest in the rugby on Saturday night.
Blend, on Level 3 of SKYCITY Auckland, will be transformed into a sport fan's dream - complete with grandstands and big screens for both matches. If you missed out on tickets to Mt Smart or work wouldn't let you fly to France, SKYCITY's home stadium will ensure you have just as good a time watching your favourite teams on the field.
To help get you in the spirit of the game, traditional sporting fare will be available including pies, battered hotdogs, hot chips and wedges - all served up with a cold pint of lager.
On Friday night, the Vodafone Warriors will be kicking off their semi-final match at Mt Smart Stadium at 8.30pm and on Saturday night the Steinlager Black Zone will be blacked out and ready for action for the game in Marseilles, France at 11.00pm.
So get down to SKYCITY, if you can find us in the dark, and enjoy the big games at Auckland's leading entertainment destination.
