Go Media Got You Covered Getting Home From The Game

Outdoor advertising company Go Media has made getting home from a future Auckland FC or One NZ Warriors game easier with the installation of a shelter outside Go Media Stadium.

The bus-stop like structure is located outside Gate A on Maurice Road and allows fans to stay dry after the game before heading home.

“It’s a little thing, but it will make getting home from the game a lot easier when the weather is a bit dodgy,” says Go Media Managing Director Mike Gray.

“No one wants to watch their team win and have the weather rain on their parade. This should help fix that.”

Go Media installed the shelter ahead of last weekend's sold-out Auckland FC semi-final. The company was an early sponsor of this year’s break out A-League men’s team and has been naming rights sponsor of its home stadium since May 2023.

Tātaki Auckland Unlimited Director Auckland Stadiums James Parkinson says Go Media has been a tremendous supporter of the venue and should be seen as an integral part of the region’s recent sporting success stories.

“Go Media understands what it takes to build community and customer experience. Their investment has helped to level up the game day experience at Go Media Stadium. Patrons will welcome the addition of this shelter and are already enjoying the benefits of the second digital replay screen that was recently installed at the stadium,” said Parkinson.

“We’re incredibly positive about the relationship with Go Media. It’s a locally owned business that is always looking for ways to support the local community.”

“What Auckland FC has achieved in its inaugural year at Go Media Stadium is incredible. The on-pitch results speak for themselves, but what has really impressed is the amazing fan support that has built up around this club,” says Gray.

“We’re huge supporters of football, rugby, basketball, cricket, netball, athletics, arts, culture, music, fashion, and events in Tāmaki Makaurau and are proud to have been a small part of Auckland FC’s success.

“We’re in business to give something back to the community and this shelter seemed like an easy, cool thing to do that utilised our outdoor public transport infrastructure skills to get it built. And although Auckland FC’s epic season has ended, we hope many One NZ Warriors fans will get to go home happy and dry after their games because of it,” says Gray.
