Wellington's party central organisers believe they're well prepared for tonight's quarter final festivities.
Courtenay Place and some surrounding roads closed early this morning, for the pending street party.
They won't open again until Monday, and there'll be extensive road closures around Wellington Regional Stadium before and after the games.

"They've come along away, they've got coin in their pockets, they want good wine and nice food," says Mr Coleman.
