What do you think of Christchurch's stadium plan?
Christchurch's roofed 25,000-seat stadium could be ready within five years but the pressure is now on to get it planned and built right.
The city council's long-awaited investment case says a 25,000 seat mostly clear-roofed facility is the best fit for the city, and could be built within the budgeted $473 million, including running costs. Temporary seating was not included but could be added later.
The chosen option would cost $472.7m to build and $485.3m to run over 25 years, of which $343m would be funded by stadium income, with an annual $4.2m council top-up.

🩸 Giving Blood, Plasma and Platelets Saves Lives! 🩸
Just one blood, plasma or platelet donation can make a life-saving difference to the lives of many. Whether you’re a first-time donor or a regular, every donation counts! ❤️
New Zealand is currently short on donors, and to keep up with demand, is having to import blood products from overseas. So, if you can spare an hour (or slightly more) a few times a year, you’d be giving a priceless gift to those in need right here at home.
Let's support each other and those in need - you never know when a loved one may need it.
And remember our Emergency Cards and Tags have space to record your blood type, helping first responders act fast when it matters most!
