Sir Elton John has passed his best wishes onto the man who had a heart attack at his Wellington concert.

On Saturday a man went into cardiac arrest in the Westpac Stadium car park.

According to Sir Elton John's New Zealand Concert promoters the man made a "great recovery" thanks to the assistance of other audience members and the Wellington Free Ambulance staff on site.

"Sir Elton and his management are now aware of the event and wish him well," said the promotions company spokesman.
