COVID-19 UPDATE | CENTRE PLACE

SHOPPING AT CENTRE PLACE UNDER THE COVID-19 PROTECTION FRAMEWORK

In line with the New Zealand Government’s requirements, Centre Place will operate under the orange settings of the Covid-19 Protection Framework from Thursday 14 April 2022.

HOW THE CENTRE WILL OPERATE

FACE COVERINGS

A face mask is required to be worn in-centre and retail stores at all times.

A face covering will need to be an actual mask and attached to the head by loops around the ears or head. This means scarves, bandannas, or t-shirts are not to be used.

CENTRE TRADING HOURS:

Throughout April, please note that there is a change to our late night shopping hours, as we support our retailers through staffing disruptions due to Covid-19.

·         Monday – Wednesday: 9.00am – 6.00pm

·         Thursday: 9.00am – 7.00pm

·         Friday & Saturday: 9.00am – 6.00pm

·         Sundays & Public Holidays: 10.00am – 5.00pm

Please note that, due to staffing issues arising from current isolation requirements, that some stores may close or open shorter hours than advertised.  If you are visiting for a specific store, please find their phone number in our store listing and contact them before arrival to avoid disappointment.  We thank you for your understanding and apologise for any inconvenience caused.

QR CODES:

The centre has a NZ COVID Tracer QR Code at all entrances as well as at centre bathrooms and amenities. There is no requirement to scan in or for a business to display a QR code poster or have mandatory record keeping but you may continue to scan the QR codes around the centre if you wish.

FOOD COURT AND RESPITE SEATING:

Respite seating is available and all food court seating is now available, providing ample space to dine in.
