The band played to a packed-out CBS Canterbury Arena in Christchurch on Thursday night, but didn't stick around the city long, opting instead to fly to Auckland after the show.
Dedicated One Direction fans - known as Directioners - have lined-up behind barriers outside The Langham on Friday morning hoping they'll get to see the band through their hotel room window.
