All Blacks Experience

About

The All Blacks Experience sits in the SKYCITY complex and is built for people who want to do rather than read. It walks through the history of the team and the wider New Zealand rugby story, then puts you through interactive sections where you test passing accuracy, kicking and reaction speed against measured standards. The haka section is the emotional centre of it and is handled with more care than you might expect. It works whether you follow rugby closely or barely at all, though the detail rewards the former. Sessions run in timed groups so booking ahead is sensible. Roughly an hour. Entirely indoors and right in the central city, so it's an easy addition to a day that's already downtown, and it sits next to the Sky Tower if you want to combine the two.
