The parade is confirmed to take place on Thursday 6 July starting at 12.30pm and making its way down Queen Street towards the waterfront. Please see the attached map for the parade route and recommended viewing points. Team NZ will then take to the water from the Viaduct Basin for a sail past (wahoo!), giving viewers a unique vantage point from which to welcome the team home.
The central city is expected to be very busy on the day of the parade with road closures and bus diversions. People attending the parade are advised to use public transport, to cycle or walk, as parking will be very limited. Get information on transport here.
Can't leave the sofa/office? The Welcome Home Parade will be broadcast free to air on TVNZ 1 and TV3. It will also be streamed on Newshub and 1newsnow.
Get key information about the parade including public transport and traffic updates. See you there!

‘Balls, bullets & boots, from rugby field to battlefield’ is a unique WWI commemorative exhibition that tackles the story of wartime rugby. The life stories featured in the exhibition aim to encapsulate the range of wartime experiences Kiwis 100 years ago would have had. The fifteen rugby players and coach were brought together through their love of rugby and their selection for the exhibition ‘XVI’.
Visitors enter the exhibition through the stylised walls of a 1914 changing room before they meet their on-screen guide, Anton Oliver, a former All Black. Anton takes you through an immersive graphics-backed space where audio, film, artifact and lighting provides the visitor with a multi-media journey. Travel from the rugby fields of home to the battlefields and back again, to a country where lives are changed forever by the shadow of war.
This exhibition is family friendly and ideally suited for ages 10+. We would love to see you there!

While the players prepared to enter an enclosure with real lions, ABs sponsor AIG swapped the big cats out for a decidedly more tame pack of promising young players from Pakuranga United … View moreIt was a rare occasion to see four All Blacks jump when they came face to face with lions at Auckland Zoo.
