Get ready for a frenetic final day of campaigning, mixed with a tinge of sadness for Labour leader Jacinda Ardern as she take a break to attend her grandmother's funeral.
The party leaders are converging on Auckland for a final day of campaigning.
Ardern is visiting businesses in the city before going to Te Aroha for her grandmother's funeral.
After that she'll be back on the trail with several walkabouts in Auckland's suburbs.
National's Bill English will be in his campaign bus, winding his way to Auckland and stopping off in towns along the way.
And it's the last chance for people to get on the voters' roll.
Enrolment closes at the end of Friday and the Electoral Office said on Thursday there were still 340,409 eligible voters yet to sign up.
