Aisle 33 here too, also got a reply from Ticketmaster, looks as though they've updated the website so you can finally purchase tickets via ticket type (e.g Fever Zone, Silver Zone etc.) Instead of by grand stand. Hopefully it wasn't too late.

I got allocated bay 32 when I emailed in to get tickets - wasn't given the option for the fever zone. Next to it tho so shouldn't be a problem to scoot over?

Also apparently if there are still any casual fans who do end up sitting in the zone then they have another bay where they can move to

Uber is probably the most efficient way to get from A to B since buses and trains aren't great up here. If you're not comfortable using Uber, trains and buses can be found for your journey on this website: https://at.govt.nz/bus-train-ferry/journey-planner

It looks like it would take around an hour from hotel to pub and probably around $6-7 dollars each way via public transport methods (both trains and buses unfortunately)

Best to get the train from britomart station to penrose. It's about a 10 minute walk to the stadium from there. Get either the southern or onehunga line train

Train much quicker / more comfy than bus but longer walk to pub.

Any Welly crew sticking around for the ACFC/Easts derby at Bill McK on Sunday? Should be a cracker.

Bus to bottom of queen street, or walk (about 15 mins downhill if yr at the top of queen) or taxi, to Britomart which is near bottom of queen street. Then take train to Penrose. there should be enough phoenix supporters for it to be obvious what train to get on. I take that line often in peak hour and it's very reliable and comfortable, imagine it will also be fine on a Saturday eve.

Link bus (Red bus that goes every 10 minutes): https://at.govt.nz/bus-train-ferry/bus-services/l... to Britomart. Then train to Penrose from Britomart.

Because of the construction near britomart the stop to get off on the link bus is right near the bottom of Queen street rather than at Britomart itself  (then you go across the lights at bottom of Queen street to get to britomart).

Go up to K' Road on the 50c red bus. Just like Cuba Street only dodgier and more fun. Also, there's a protest against the massacre in Aleppo at Aotea Square at 2 pm.

St Heliers & Kohi folk are too polite to diss anybody.

Bit of a review thus far: bar floors a bit sticky, but 7 dollar handles aren't terrible for Auckland prices. Quite quiet thus far, not many hi-ves cladded lads we can start a bar fight with

Tip, We don't wear bare feet in bars in Auckland. Even more important in the urinals
