Argentine flag to fly on Auckland Harbour Bridge

The flag of Argentina will fly from Auckland Harbour Bridge tomorrow, Thursday 25 May (weather permitting), in recognition of the Argentine National Day. The flag will be flown from 6:30am until 6:30pm.

Transit considers requests from nations wanting to commemorate their country’s national days. Recently the Bulgarian, Norwegian and Israeli flags have all flown on the bridge.
