Eden Park stadium dealt $700,000 blow by Covid-19 restrictions
The country’s biggest stadium, Eden Park in Auckland, has taken a $700,000 profit hit after coronavirus cancelled major games.
The stadium’s trust board said it had lost two sell-out games, the North vs South rugby match and the Blues vs Crusaders clash, and All Black tests against South Africa and Wales had been postponed.
The consequences of restrictions on large gatherings due to Covid-19 were spelled out in a presentation to Auckland Council, which agreed a $63 million bailout in March 2019.
