Friday Prayer at Hagley Park
An official Call to Prayer event will take place this afternoon as Hagley Park, across from Al Noor Masjid on Deans Avenue in Christchurch.
Public should arrive before 1pm for a 1.15pm start.
Everyone attending this event (media and public) should dress modestly. Women should wear clothing that covers their ankles and long sleeves that go down to the wrist. They should also wear headscarves that cover their hair.
The public have been invited to attend and will be in an area at the eastern end of the park (please see the map).
A no-fly zone is in place across Christchurch until 23 March.
The Call to Prayer event is being live-streamed by TVNZ and Mediaworks
