New Ticket direct kiosk at Christchurch Airport

Bledisloe Cup tickets can now be bought at Christchurch Airport, following the installation of a Ticket Direct kiosk in the Domestic Terminal.

“As great supporters of Canterbury events, we wanted to make it as easy as possible for visitors to buy tickets to this un-missable rugby event,” said CIAL General Manager of Marketing and Business Development, Gareth Owen. “Having a ticket kiosk at the airport will be a major convenience for rugby fans.”

The new ticket kiosk has been welcomed by the Canterbury Rugby Union. "We are really excited about the Bledisloe Cup Test, which promises to be a real humdinger,” said Canterbury Rugby Union CEO Hamish Riach. “We look forward to welcoming Robbie Deans and his Australian team back to Christchurch for a great game. We are delighted that the Christchurch Airport is showing its support for the match through giving fans another opportunity to buy tickets.”

“We have a dedicated team of travel and tourism consultants in our terminals who promote tourism products,” explained Gareth Owen. “Selling Bledisloe tickets seemed like an obvious direction as we cater for the needs of our travelling public and local community at the airport campus.”

The Bledisloe Cup will be held on 7 August, at AMI stadium.

It’s expected that in the future, the Ticket Direct kiosk will be used to sell tickets to other Christchurch events, including sports events and concerts.
