SkyCity's pulling together the final touches on its colossal International Convention Centre ahead of its February 11th opening. 

A large fire in 2019, when the building was nearing completion, set the project back significantly.  

Now with just two months to go, SkyCity's locked in more than 100 conferences and events at the new venue.  

General Manager Prue Daly told Ryan Bridge an estimated 30% of their events each year will be international.  

She says they’ve got inquiries all the way out to 2032, and the team is working to make sure they can bring them to New Zealand.
