As the ‘Home of the Vodafone Warriors’, SKYCITY is the perfect place to watch the big game this Sunday night as the boys battle it out in the NRL Grand Final for only the second time in the history of the club!

SKYCITY will be celebrating across its Auckland property on Sunday with the juniors’ matches screening in Sammy’s Place and the Vodafone Warriors vs. the Manly Sea Eagles match at 7.00pm showing in SKYCITY’s newest sports bar, The Nation’s Clubrooms.

Warm up for the Grand Final will begin in The Nation’s Clubrooms from 6.15pm with Radio Sports host D’Arcy Waldegrave as MC for the event and some special appearances from The Nation’s Clubrooms Girls.

SKYCITY has been a major sponsor of the Vodafone Warriors this year and part of the sponsorship family since 2000. During the season, SKYCITY hosts regular ‘meet the team’ events as well as celebrations for the Player of the Day, of which Captain Simon Mannering has been awarded the accolade five times!

Schedule of games:
Auckland Vulcans vs. Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs: 2pm – Sammy’s Place
Vodafone Junior Warriors vs. North Queensland Cowboys: 4pm – Sammy’s Place
Vodafone Warriors vs. Manly Sea Eagles: 7pm with pre game entertainment from 6.15pm – The Nation’s Clubrooms

SKYCITY CEO Nigel Morrison says “After many proud years of supporting the team we’re wrapped to see the boys in the Grand Final – it is a fantastic achievement. Following the great wins over the Tigers and the Melbourne Storm, beating the Sea Eagles will cap off an unbelievable finals series. We’re looking forward to a great sense of excitement across our property on Sunday afternoon and evening and are even more excited about welcoming the boys back to SKYCITY next week, hopefully with the trophy in hand. Good luck to all three teams and Go New Zealand!”.
