Please note: Due to critical maintenance work by NZTA, some of Vector Lights will not appear on the west side overarch of the Auckland Harbour Bridge. Completion of the work is expected by 31 March 2025.


It’s Auckland’s spectacular free light display! Powered by a mix of leading technology, including solar, battery and peer-to-peer systems, Vector Lights transforms the Waitematā as a guiding light toward a smart energy future.
