Whanganui District Council will stream the service at the Whanganui Regional Museum's Davis Lecture Theatre.

People are invited to gather at 9.30am on Friday, March 29 where councillor Josh Chandulal-Mackay, members of the local Muslim community and iwi leaders will speak ahead of the national service from 10am.

"In the week since the unprecedented terror attack there has been an outpouring of grief and love in our country. The service will be a chance to once again show that New Zealanders are compassionate, inclusive and diverse, and that we will protect those values.

"The terrorist attack has been significant for many countries. We anticipate international guests and visitors will want to attend and to join us in our sorrow and support for the victims and their families."
