Light the Sky Tower in Solidarity with Ukraine

The issue

On Thursday February 24th, Russia unjustly invaded Ukraine under false pretences. Intense fighting has begun. The disruption to peace is global.

This is the largest border incursion in Europe since World War 2.

Missile strikes, air raids and artillery shelling has cause many deaths, with everyday Ukrainians fighting bravely but alone to maintain their democracy and sovereignty. 

It is vital that the international community rally behind Ukraine at this extraordinary time in history. 

New Zealand can play its part in a small way, doing what we can to reinforce the moral of those effected in the region. 

Multiple requests have been made to Sky City to show solidarity by lighting the Sky Tower in blue and yellow, the colours of the Ukrainian flag.

Landmarks in London, Rome, Melbourne, Paris and Berlin have already done similar. With many more expected in the coming days. 

Responses have been given are that submissions need to be 4 weeks in advance and that they simply cannot accept all requests.

Under these circumstances we believe an urgent exception should be made. 

Light the Sky Tower in the Ukrainian colours!
