This year is Armageddon's 24th year in Wellington. This is the first Armaggedon of the year, with others set to take place in Christchurch, Tauranga and Auckland. It's expected that over 20,000 people will be heading to Westpac Stadium this weekend. The event in the capital's on until April 15th. Event organiser Courtney Collins talks to Jim about which celebrity guests are going to be there and their policy, this year, of banning all realistic looking prop weapons which could be considered, under the law, to be imitation firearms.
