RWC 3D screenings suffer lack of interest (New Zealand)

(by staff)

Plans for giant 3D screenings of Rugby World Cup matches are under threat, because hardly anyone is buying tickets.

Several cinemas and seven arenas had signed up to show the final four matches, but only 15 percent of tickets have been sold despite prices being slashed.

3DLIVE, the company filming the footage, says it may now have to cancel the bigger shows.

It has asked Rugby World Cup organisers for financial help but it also hopes that, like tickets to actual games, there will be a last minute surge in interest.

3D broadcasts on Sky are still likely to go ahead, and if any screenings here are cancelled people would be reimbursed.
