Huge variety:
Vector Arena once again hosts some of the New Zealand's most spectacular events in 2009.

From City Scene, published on 12 July, 2009.

Andrew Lloyd Webber's Starlight Express is finally coming to New Zealand and is on at Auckland's Vector Arena from 25 July to 9 August. Starlight Express played in London's West End for 18 years, is in its 21st year in Germany, and has been seen by almost 20 million people worldwide.

This new arena version, with additional new songs, state-of-the-art technology, and specialist stunt skaters performing "extreme sports" elements is going to be a fantastic live theatrical experience. This futuristic tale of the triumph of love and hope in the face of adversity is a feel-good musical that gives audiences a performance of speed, spectacle and turbo-charged excitement.

There is a huge variety of other spectacular events coming up at Vector Arena, including:

  • 4 Sep - Westfield Style Pasifika
  • 23 Sep - 2009 New World International Netball Series: Silver Ferns v Australian Diamonds
  • 2 Oct - Il Divo
  • 8 Oct - 44th Annual Vodafone New Zealand Music Awards
  • 13 Oct - Black Eyed Peas

Visit Vector Arena online for information.

City Scene readers have the chance to see what all the excitement is about, with five double passes up for grabs to the Saturday, 1 August show.
