    Hamilton's hospo sector's gearing up for a busy weekend, with the All Blacks in town


    Nearly 26-thousand people will make up the crowd watching the third test against the French at FMG Stadium.

    It also marks the first return of the All Blacks in Hamilton since their last test in Waikato against Argentina in 2022.

    Chief Executive of major hospo group The Lawrenson Group, John Lawrenson says with so many people flocking to the city, venues are looking to make hay while the sun shines.

    He says venues like Keystone are already booked to over-flowing.
