Auckland Transport (AT) proudly partners with major event organisers to deliver seamless, stress-free travel experiences for attendees. As part of our commitment to accessible and sustainable transport, we offer integrated ticketing—a convenient option where bus and train fares are included in the event ticket.

This initiative is part of a subsidised cost-share arrangement between AT and event organisers, designed to reduce barriers to public transport and support smoother journeys to and from events. Integrated ticketing helps reduce congestion, supports environmental goals, and enhances the overall event experience.

Event organisers can choose to opt into this service based on their event’s needs and priorities.

We’re opening the new and revamped CRL stations to the public for three ‘First Look’ events during August. You’ll be able to walk through the stations, hear about their design, and learn more about how the new rail network will operate.

These events will take place on the following dates:
• First Look at Maungawhau Station - 8 August
