Shed 10 has been turned into a centrepiece of Auckland's Rugby World Cup fanzone - though on busy nights a part of it will be exclusive to Mastercard holders.
The once-rundown old shed on Queens Wharf has been repainted and given beer taps, screens and modern furniture to create a bar capable of holding 1800 people.
The shabby wood-and-concrete roof hints at its past as a storage barn, but the remainder of the venue has been spruced up by sponsorship-heavy renovations and decor.
Along the concrete-floored northern end stretches a long bar counter to create the Heineken World Bar, with the open area decorated with minimal, green furniture.
Beer will be served in recyclable plastic cups, and the brewer has promised enough beer pipes and bar equipment for cold beer and short queues.
