Sky Tower glows for Pink October

The Sky Tower will join landmarks around New Zealand lighting pink to raise awareness for breast cancer this October.

Coast radio host Lorna Subritzky, New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation Ambassador, will turn on the lights of the Sky Tower tonight.

The Sky Tower will be lit in bright shades of pink until 15 October.

The Civic, Auckland Art Gallery and Auckland Town Hall will also light, as well as SKYCITY Hamilton, the Michael Fowler Centre, Canterbury Museum, and SKYCITY Wharf Casino in Queenstown to name a few.  

The Sky Tower is the Southern Hemisphere’s tallest man-made structure based in the heart of Auckland, and is one of New Zealand’s most recognisable landmarks.

SKYCITY lights the Sky Tower for charities or community initiatives that we support financially, to mark national holidays, milestones or other celebrations or events, or as a symbol of respect or solidarity.

The lighting of the Sky Tower is best viewed, photographed or filmed 30minutes after sunset.
