Cameron, who travelled up from Wellington for the show, told the Herald this afternoon, “Oh my God, it was actually insane.
“He walked around the corner so casual, he said hello ... and hopes that we enjoy the show. He was so nice!” she gushed.
Fans have been able to line up outside Mt Smart since 8am today - but Cameron said she and her friends have been there since 6am. Auckland Transport has warned concertgoers to plan ahead as gates open at 5pm, just as heavy traffic peaks in the city.
Eager fans were already lining up to get their hands on Harry Styles merch at the stadium yesterday, with photos and videos of long queues shared to social media.
If you’re planning to queue up ahead of tonight’s show, come prepared with a hat or sunscreen as it’s forecast to be sunny in Auckland and there isn’t a lot of shade outside Mt Smart.
About 40,000 fans are expected to pour into the stadium tonight to watch the former One Direction member perform. It’s his only New Zealand show after a string of concerts in Australia over the past week. The shows are an extension of his Love on Tour world tour, which kicked off in June 2022, with the New Zealand and Australia dates initially postponed due to the pandemic.
And if his Aussie shows are anything to go by, Kiwis can expect to hear all of his biggest hits from his recent albums including Adore You, Treat People With Kindness, Watermelon Sugar, Sign of the Times, and Kiwi.
