Macedonian flag to fly on Auckland Harbour Bridge

The flag of the Republic of Macedonia will fly from Auckland Harbour Bridge tomorrow, Friday 8 September, in recognition of the Macedonian Independence 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 Brazilian, Slovak Republic and Malaysian flags have all flown on the bridge.
