Wellington has turned on a glorious day for the World Premiere of The Hobbit; check out the picture below, via the Dom-Post:

The crowds have flocked into downtown Wellington. DPF is watching the fun from the Downstage Theatre, and has just tweeted:

Crowds at Courtney Place almost impassable. Now enjoying view from 2nd floor of Downstage Theatre #hobbit

It's a special day for Wellington, for New Zealand, and for all who worked on The Hobbit; let the fun begin!
