SkyCity's chief executive expects most of the central Auckland precinct to re-open tomorrow.

It was evacuated on Tuesday when a fire started at its under-construction convention centre, and its restaurants, casino and the SkyTower were all closed.

RNZ News reporter Katie Scotcher speaks with Karyn about the third day of firefighting.
