Rugby World Cup 2011
Rugby World Cup 2011, the 7th World Cup, will be held in New Zealand. The event is expected to cost $310 million and generate $280 million in ticket sales and a tremendous spike in the New Zealand tourism sector. This will be the largest sporting event ever
held in New Zealand, much larger than the 1987 Rugby World Cup or the 1992 Cricket World Cup. Over 70,000 visitors from overseas are expected to come for the games and associated events. The World Cup will be played over seven weekends from the weekend of the 10th of September and ending the weekend of October 22nd, which is a longer weekend due to Labour Day in New Zealand. The final will play in Auckland at Eden Park.
New Zealand’s progress in preparing for the Rugby World Cup 2011 received a top rating from the International Rugby Board’s (IRB) chairmen and chief executive. All preparations for the Cup are projected to be ready in time. The IRB has also narrowed down all of the teams that will be competing, to 20. Twelve teams were determined by finishing in the top three of each pool in the 2007 tournament with the remaining eight determined by regional qualifying tournaments.
People wishing to experience the Rugby World Cup 2011, need not travel from hotel to hotel between games. One way to travel from stadium to stadium is via motor home. If booked early, spectators have a choice of the size and model of motor home as well as a secure location to park during the night. Doing this will require a large deposit of two thirds, but guarantees a 4 and 6 berth Motor home to be available for their use in 2011. The demand for rental cars and motor homes is projected to be large, so to meet the demand agencies are hoping that people book early. The funds are held in a trust account in the renter’s name. If circumstances change before 2011, the deposit is refundable except for an administration fee of around NZ$50.00 for up to six months prior to travel. At that point, normal cancellation fees apply.
