Date Time Local businesses are winners from Titans’ match Lismore’s CBD businesses enjoyed a massive boost to weekend trade thanks to the NRL’s pre-season trial game between the Gold Coast Titans and the New Zealand Warriors at the recently upgraded Oakes Oval. Tickets to the game sold out on Friday night with a reduced capacity of 4800 due to COVID. Lismore City Council’s Events Coordinator Leanne Clark said that demand for tickets was so strong that she could have sold thousands more had it not been for COVID restrictions. After the nail-biting game, spectators poured into the city looking for food and drink.
