Or you could try the Jellicoe Street car park and walk along Madden Street to the theatre: https:// at.govt.nz/driving-parking/find-parking/parkingin-central-auckland/open-air-car-parks/ Please note: Te Wero Bridge is a drawbridge which raises to let small boats out of the Viaduct Harbour. The raising and lowering process takes about 15 minutes. Please ensure you give yourself plenty of time in case you are held up by the bridge. Please see the map for location details.
