It's International Star Wars Day.

The Stardome Observatory and Planetarium is running three special planetarium shows at 6pm, 7.30 pm and 9 pm tonight to commemorate the anniversary of the Star Wars movie.

The best selling film actually first screened in theatres on May 25.

Star Wars Day initially started on May 4 as a running joke, stemming from the pun, "May the Fourth be with you".

It was a play on words sparked by the popular movie line, "May the Force be with you," used by the characters to wish comrades good luck.

But the date stuck and Stars Wars Day has been celebrated on May 4 since 2011.

Bookings are essential for the events at the venue in One Tree Hill, Auckland.

Dress up as your favourite Star Wars character to go in the draw for some epic prizes.

Stormtroopers from the 501st Legion will be scouring the crowd for Rebel scum – but if you use your Jedi mind tricks you may be able to sneak past them to pose for photos.

You’ll then be treated to a special edition of Our Night Sky inside the planetarium, voyaging from nearby stars and planets to galaxies far, far away.

Everyone is welcome, even if you’ve gone to The Dark Side.

Go to stardome.org.nz/show/may-the-fourth-2 or email
info@stardome.org.nz for information.

Million-dollar dumps: Auckland's $5.8m Carlile House deemed 'dangerous building'

Carlile House in Auckland’s Grey Lynn is slowly crumbling away.

Its owners, the United Church of Tonga, claim the land’s significance as home to the first Tongan congregation in New Zealand is being neglected by Auckland Council, in favour of its history as an orphanage, preventing the site from being developed.

Because of the building's status as a category one historic place and a stalemate with Auckland Council, Carlile House cannot be repaired or demolished.

However, the situation has recently become of higher concern to both parties, following the recent partial collapse of the building’s roof.

More venues around Auckland will be subject to temporary alcohol bans at major events under proposed changes to Auckland Council's alcohol control bylaws.

Recurring temporary booze bans are in place for all major events at Eden Park, concerts at Mount Smart Stadium, Christmas in the Park and the Lantern Festival in Auckland.

The council's governing body has voted to amend the Alcohol Control Bylaw 2014 to put a stop to alcohol for all major events at Mount Smart Stadium, Western Springs stadium and outer fields, Auckland Domain, Auckland Zoo's carpark, Te Papapa train station and any future fan trails to events where booze is forbidden.

Councillor Josephine Bartley said the proposed changes were about protecting our communities.

"Improving temporary major event alcohol bans will stop people drinking alcohol irresponsibly on their way to, at or after a major event and help prevent the associated disorder that occurs as a result.

"People should be able to attend these wonderful events that bring vibrancy to our city without having to worry about encountering anti-social behaviour caused by groups of people binge drinking."

Bartley said the improvements helped make it safer for people to travel to events on public transport and would prevent the problem from being shifted elsewhere.

Nearly 900 people gave their feedback on the proposed changes, which come into effect on June 1.
