Event: Fieldays 11 - 14 June 2025

Check in here for live updates on which roads are affected and any known issues in the wider network surrounding the Fieldays event. This information is intended to assist people in preparing not just for attending the event but also for travelling around the event location.

The traffic management plan for Fieldays 2025 only has minor adjustments from the previous year's event. The only change is that in the afternoon, there will be no access north towards Tamahere from Hamilton Airport from 4 pm to 6 pm.

As with last year, there will be a no-through road system on SH21 (Airport Road) from Raynes Road in the morning. Traffic using SH3 into Hamilton to travel south on SH1 should expect this journey to take an additional 10 minutes based on the travel information we gathered in previous years and the required detour at Tamhere Interchange during peak morning flows. We will only implement this in the morning for up to 3 hours, and you will be able to see live updates on when it is closed or open to through traffic.

For wider travel information, travelling to and from Fieldays, visit the NZTA Journeys Website for live updates.

A great, sustainable way to travel to and from the Fieldays is to use the Free Park & Ride bus services. You will be dropped off and picked up almost right at the event gates.
