Sky Stadium (formerly Westpac) is the worlds first modern purpose built cricket ground. It is also the home of New Zealand's other main sporting code, rugby.
The building’s external skin of horizontally-striated reflective metal cladding has created a large sculptural landmark on the northern edge of the CBD. The concourse areas include gallery spaces providing seven-day-a-week entertainment, cultural and exhibition space serving the community. The stadium also includes offices, a sports medicine facility, cricket academy and a cricket museum.
