Be there for the first State of Origin ever played in New Zealand, with your flights sorted. The Auckland with Flights from Sydney 2-Nights Package gives you return flights at a fixed fare, two nights in Auckland, a free day on Wednesday before an evening kick-off, and a Category D reserved seat at Eden Park for the 2027 Ampol State of Origin Auckland.
You’ll fly Air New Zealand from Sydney on the morning of Tuesday 15 June and home on the morning of Thursday 17 June, with hosted transfers between Auckland Airport and your hotel. You’ll stay two nights at your choice of hotel or apartment: the 4-star Rendezvous Heritage Hotel Auckland, Rydges Auckland and the 5-star Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour, or self-contained apartments at Avani Auckland Metropolis Residences, Adina Auckland Britomart and Adina CityLife Auckland. Daily breakfast is included with all hotel stays. Sky Tower admission, the Ampol State of Origin Shield photo opportunity and Official State of Origin merchandise are included.
Eden Park is a rugby ground, so every seat is close to the play, and Auckland is a league city. With an evening kick-off, Wednesday is yours: the Sky Tower, the Viaduct, or a ferry to Waiheke Island. Flight packages sell out first, so book early.
Book with an Official Travel Agent for the NRL since 2012 and you’ll have our support before you travel and our team on the ground in Auckland. Seat upgrades, extra nights, experiences and travel insurance can all be added.
