Named after the former New Zealand Prime Minister Richard John (King Dick) Seddon, Seddon Park is Hamilton's international cricket ground. It has gone under several alternative names: Trust Bank Park (1990-1997), WestpacTrust Park (1997-2003) and Westpac Park (2003-2006). In 2006, Westpac Trust Bank ended its sponsorship, and the ground reverted to its original name of Seddon Park.
Major gigs there included The Dave Clark Five and The Seekers on 8 June 1965, Smokey Robinson on 1 November 1981, Little River Band on 16 February 1983, ZZ Top on 16 April 2011, Good Charlotte on 17 April 2011, and INXS in 21 April 2012.
