Westpac Stadium is a huge, multipurpose stadium in Wellington which is primarily used for rugby and cricket matches. With a seating capacity of over 34,000, the stadium is well renowned for its unusual cake tin design aspect.

With a seating capacity sitting at 30,000 it makes it one of the largest stadiums in the country and regularly hosts many games. The Auckland Warriors rugby team call this stadium home and have many passionate fans who come out to every home game they play here.
