Eden Park has been granted consent to host double the number of concerts in a year.

The Auckland stadium will now be able to host 12 concerts a year from six different artists.

CEO Nick Sautner told Heather du Plessis-Allan promoters are delighted with the announcement.

But he says they're limited to six artists under the conditions of the consent.

“Over time we wanted to build a level of comfort with everyone, including public transport providers to know that we can get people to and from the venue, or indeed the local businesses to receive the economic benefit.”
