All of New Zealand apart from Auckland will move to level 2 on Tuesday night. But the limit on gatherings has changed - 50 people for indoor events and 100 at outdoor events.
Caroline Harvie-Teare is the chief executive at Venues Ōtautahi - which oversees the Christchurch Town Hall, Christchurch Arena and Orange-theory Stadium.
She told Lisa Owen the new level 2 rules "takes us out at the knees".
