In late 2019, the external lights on the Sky Tower were switched to LED, supporting SkyCity’s climate change commitment to reduce carbon emissions from the Sky Towers lighting by 10%.

Following the upgrade, the number of external lights on the Sky Tower has doubled, with 60 LED lights at the top of the Sky Tower and 96 LED lights at the base – truly lighting up Auckland’s skyline.
