The Warriors will miss the finals for the fourth straight season but Auckland’s NRL outfit will boast a full house for their last game of the year next weekend.
Major sponsor Vodafone has bought every remaining seat at Mount Smart Stadium for the September 3 clash against Gold Coast, and will give away tickets to fans.
“It’s a tremendous gesture,” Warriors chief executive Cameron George said.
“We had a rough two and a half years with our players being unable to perform on home turf in front of their fans due to border closures.
“We can’t wait to see fans packing out Mt Smart once again as we put a line under our COVID exile and celebrate the dawn of a home season back in New Zealand.”
Vodafone has sponsored New Zealand’s sole NRL side for two decades and has extended its deal to the end of the 2026 season.
Tickets will be made available through Ticketmaster from Monday.
