Rotorua is set to host three matches during the Rugby World Cup and we should be excited about it.
Preparations are well under way as the first Cup game at the Rotorua International Stadium is on Saturday, when Fiji kick off their campaign against Namibia.
Hundreds of staff and volunteers will be on hand to make sure match days run smoothly.
We'll have 100 portaloos, 70 volunteers, 200 security staff, 15 St John staff, 27 television cameras, 11 food outlets, seven drink outlets and 180 food and beverage staff coming in for the games.
But it's the items to keep hunger and thirst at bay that are of more interest. We're told 80,000 units of beer are to be brought in, as well as 2000kg chips, 150kg of pork loin, 22,000 hot dogs and 100kg of whitebait.
