Countdown
With Auckland Showgrounds currently closed, we are in peril. We have until 4pm Friday 30th September to hold out hope that we will be able to bring #Auckgeddon 2022 to all our thousands upon thousands of fans, staff, exhibitors, vendors etc. 
We have spent every waking hour working on this, reworking, praying, begging, and trying to find loopholes and ways to make this happen now so we can solidly move forward.
We have been talking with all parties involved with the venue, bot…

Hey hey all!  We’re still going on an adventure, or so we hope.So, here are some updates for you - a short update and then a full update, with FAQs below.In short – We are still waiting for the venue to confirm but we are hopeful, so have decided to hold fast until the 30th Sept in the hopes that we will be good to rock and roll.

2022 Dates and Updates

Hey HeyHoping everyone is safe and well out there as we head into 2022 and the new Covid experience that is Omicron in NZ.
Here at Armageddon HQ we have been working hard on this year’s events and have been looking forward to finally getting back out there, however it is apparent that in the current Covid situation and the red settings, that while it may be possible to hold the Christchurch and Wellington events in March/April, it is looking unlikely and even if we can make it happen, holdi…

TAURANGA ARMAGEDDON POSTPONEMENT

So, while we are all set to rock and roll, Covid has reared its ugly head again (hopefully for the final time, fingers crossed) and we are unable to host the event in February as hoped.
Instead, we will be moving the Tauranga event to our new dates (same venue) ofJULY 23/24TH 2022.
We know that this will be disappointing to many, but the loss of mass events while at red is a small price to pay for you and your families health and safety.
We look forward to bringing the event to the Bay of Ple…

Exclusive Outlander Private Autograph Signing

If you are a fan of OUTLANDER (currently streaming on event sponsor NEON with the new season due in March 2022) then we have something brilliant to bring in the new year with.
With the exciting announcemen that Men In Kilts season 2 is starting filming in Aotearoa, we have managed to arrange an exclusive autograph signing with Outlander stars SAM HEUGHAN and GRAHAM McTAVISH. Unfortunately due to the tight filming schedule, we were unable to organise an in-person event with Sam and Graham, but…

Virtual media guests will be announced next week (ideally Monday am as well) and the event promotion really begins.
We are working on several new activities for the event, including a Red Light, Gr…

Winter Is Coming...

So, straight to it then, due to several reasons (see below) we have made the difficultdecision to cancel this year’s Auckland Armageddon event.
We will be holding a live stream on Facebook at Noon today to go through this in detail.With the uncertainty of the shift to orange or staying in red, talking with exhibitors whowere very uncertain and had considerable costs that are unavoidable the week of the show,caution on Auckland Covid response and willingness to attend a mass gathering (and t…
