Wellington Regional Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium for
major sporting events, including New Zealand Rugby tests and
international football and cricket matches.
It was built in Wellington's rail yards close to the city
centre and opened in January 2000, nine years after Wellington
Rugby first decided to redevelop the ageing Athletic Park. The
stadium also serves as a large-capacity venue for concerts.
In 2000, the stadium hosted the Edinburgh Military Tattoo -
the first time the event was held outside Edinburgh, Scotland.
During a cricket match, film director Peter Jackson recorded 30,000
fans chanting for a battle scene for his film The Lord of the
Rings: The Two Towers.
