The All Blacks are coming and New Plymouth will be buzzing.

The All Blacks arrive in New Plymouth on Monday September 4 and some of them will be in at Yarrow Stadium from 5.30pm to 7pm that night to meet the public in the TSB Stand concourse, New Plymouth District Council venue and events manager Ron Murray said.

The council had been working with retailers, bars and cafes, community groups and the teams themselves to ensure there were plenty of ways for the public to lap up the occasion, he said.

MARCOS BRINDICCI There are still tickets available for the All Blacks versus Argentina Rugby Championship game, but you'll need to be quick.

"An event like this doesn't come around to often, so we're looking forward to making the most of it and seeing the city come alive with test match fever."

Argentina's Los Pumas get into town on Thursday September 7, ahead of their Rugby Championship game on Saturday September 9 at Yarrow Stadium.

The day before the match there would be a Friday Fiesta at the Huatoki Plaza from 12pm to 1.30pm to welcome the Pumas to Taranaki, Murray said.

Andy Jackson The blue line painted on the footpath in New Plymouth guiding people to Yarrow Stadium for the Rugby World Cup is to be resurrected for the upcoming All Blacks V Argentina game.

"With free nibbles, music, dancing and Argentinian Ambassador Fausto Lopez Crozet in the mix, the South American flavour is sure to come alive."

The slightly faded blue line that led rugby fans to the stadium during the Rugby World Cup in 2011 would be getting a fresh lick of paint.

It would pave the way for the fan trail on match day, with entertainment and food stations along the way from the Clock Tower to Yarrow Stadium, he said.

Andy Jackson Yarrow Stadium will be the place to be on September 9.

"There'll be players in attendance, along with Small Blacks TV host Nua Finau, which will be an exciting experience for the kids, and probably some adults too."

Those who don't fancy walking up the hill can, for a gold coin, catch one of the shuttles that will run continuously between Ariki St and the stadium before and after the match. A $5 late night bus service will also run from Ariki St to surrounding suburbs in the CBD for those who stay out past 12am.

Egmont St between Ariki and King Streets will be closed from 9am on Saturday September 9 to 9am the following morning. A marquee will be put up on the road for an event organised by Frederic's, which would include an Argentinian style lunch open to the public, followed by live streaming of the All Blacks game.

Andy Jackson The city's was buzzing last time the men in black came to town and it will be the same next week.

And Egmont St from King St to Devon St West will also be closed for the same period and a second marquee would be put up by Peggy Gordon's, which will also live stream the game.

All council car parks in the CBD will be free from 3pm on match day, including the Downtown Carpark and The Warehouse car park. Centre City car park will be free from 6pm.

Tranzit regional buses will also be in operation from Hawera, Opunake and Urenui, stopping in towns along the way. Information on cost, timings and bookings can be found at www.tranzittours.co.nz.

Tickets are still available but NZR encouraged everyone to get in early, so they won't be disappointed, because they are expected the game to sell out, a spokesman said.

Tickets can be purchased from TSB Showplace or online at www.allblacks.com.
