NRL: NZ Warriors tickets for Newcastle Knights home semi-final sell out in less than an hour

It took less than an hour, but NZ Warriors' NRL home playoff against Newcastle Knights has completely sold out.

On Saturday, Andrew Webster's men will face the high-flying Knights at Go Media Stadium Mt Smart in the Warriors' final home match of 2023, regardless of the result.

With crowds among the best in the club's history already on the books, Saturday will be no different.

As tickets went on sale to the general public at noon, the Warriors official social media channels confirmed every seat had been snapped up just 41 minutes later.

The sellout was completely expected by the club.

"They'll go very, very quickly," Warriors chief executive Cam George told AM. "We've seen a big surge in interest around membership and the like.

"Today is a big day, so make sure you're online and ready to go, because I think they'll be snapped up in an hour or two."

Saturday's clash will be played at Mt Smart, despite the lure of Eden Park offering the chance to seat more than 40,000 - with NRL regulations requiring more than 25,000 in attendance for postseason matches.
