10th May 2010 11:33AM
Approximately 14,000 tickets will go on public sale this Monday 10 May for the All Blacks v Wales Steinlager Series Test Match to be played at Waikato Stadium in Hamilton on Saturday 26 June.
There are approximately 9000 seats available throughout Waikato Stadium, including limited seats in the covered area of the WEL Networks Stand, uncovered areas in the Brian Perry Stand, WEL Networks Stand and the temporary stand. There is also around 4500 tickets available in Greenzone, which is the standing room-only area.
Prices range from $35 to $90.
From 9.00am Monday morning tickets will go on sale via www.mooloo.co.nz, Gate One Waikato Stadium and 0800-466-665 (option 3), and the usual Ticketek outlets listed on www.mooloo.co.nz.
Waikato Rugby Union Sales Manager John Mudford said: “buying tickets via the internet is certainly the preferred, and often the quickest, option for people to purchase seats for this great test match.”
Waikato Stadium has its capacity boosted to 31,000 for this match due to the installment of a temporary stand at the Tristram St end of the ground. Construction of this stand begins on 31 May, 2010.
In the past fortnight Season Members and the rugby public, including rugby clubs, have had the opportunity to buy extra tickets before the public sale date.
The majority of covered seats were unavailable with many allocated to the NZRU for their requirements; as well as to the 2010 year-long Season Members. Furthermore seats are allocated to the hospitality packages on sale with this game.
“This match is an NZRU fixture hosted by the Waikato Rugby Union, therefore the NZRU’s seating requirements were a priority. However, as promised all 2010 Season Members, who earlier this year purchased their season-long seats in covered or uncovered areas, secured their seats for this match.”
Mudford added that there are covered seat options available which are combined within corporate hospitality packages which are currently on sale via the Waikato Rugby Union. Check out www.mooloo.co.nz for further information.
