Samoan flag to fly on Auckland Harbour Bridge

The flag of Samoa will fly from Auckland Harbour Bridge tomorrow, Thursday 1 June, in recognition of the Samoan 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 Argentine, Norwegian and Israeli flags have all flown on the bridge.
