Matariki public holiday opening hours
Over the Matariki public holiday, some of our facilities will be closed or have reduced hours.
In accordance with the Transport (Vehicular Traffic Road Closure) Regulations 1965, the following roads will be closed to ordinary vehicular traffic to enable NPDC to conduct the TSB Festival of Lights Winter Pop-up.
Date and Period of closure: from 4pm to 11pm each night from Thursday 19 June to Sunday 22 June 2025.
Roads to be closed:
Emergency vehicles will have unrestricted access at all times.
The roads may be reopened at an earlier time as decided by the organisers upon removal of all road closure signs and barriers at the venue. The roads will then be open to normal vehicle traffic and normal traffic regulations will apply.
It is an offence under the above regulations to drive on the closed roads during the period outlined above, unless authorised to do so by the event organiser.
In all other situations requiring the use of the road, contact must be made with the site traffic management coordinators on-site, on the day. Alternative routes will be available and signposted.
