A virtual version of Waitangi Day commemorations at the Treaty Grounds will be broadcast on TV3 and the iwi radio network in place of the real thing.
Two events and a number of interviews were pre-recorded at the Treaty Grounds on January 21-22, with more political leaders and dignitaries to be filmed in Auckland and Wellington in the coming week.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern was in Waitangi last Friday to record her speech.
The Waitangi Day 2022 programme will air on TV3 from 7-10am on February 6 with an interview and address to the nation by Governor-General Dame Cindy Kiro from 4.30-5pm.
