The Yarrows Taranaki Bulls Bunnings NPC match at Pukekura Park on Saturday, August 7, is halfway to a sell-out.

More than 2000 of the 4554 available seats have been snapped up within a week of the fixture in New Plymouth being confirmed.

Seats for the match are being picked up quickly by fans securing $50 adult and $30 child season memberships. Single game tickets will not be available until closer to the match.

It will be the first time the Taranaki Bulls have played at the iconic ground since 1945.

Taranaki Rugby chief executive officer Laurence Corlett said season memberships have been in high demand since news broke of the Pukekura Park match.

"It's evident that Taranaki people are very excited about the Yarrows Taranaki Bulls playing at Pukekura Park.

"The terraced atmosphere and the close proximity to the New Plymouth CBD will make for a memorable day. We encourage fans to secure their Pukekura Park seat through a season membership to avoid disappointment."
