Sir Paul McCartney is in New Zealand and the Beatles legend is raring to party.

The music icon posted a video to Facebook upon his arrival to say hello to his Kiwi fans, along with the caption: "Finally in NZ".

"Ok, so I finally got to New Zealand - wow, it's been a little while, it's beautiful, look at that," he says, gesturing to the green NZ background behind him.

He then adds: "Looking forward to the gig on Saturday night in Auckland, hope to see you there. Come on, let's rock!"

Earlier reports suggested Sir Paul was spending time in Hawke's Bay, having arrived by private jet on Wednesday night.

He is due to play at Auckland's Mt Smart Stadium on Saturday night.

McCartney recently floored Australian audiences with his 40-song set, which is being described as "epic" and "a musical experience like few others" by Australian media.

The Sydney Morning Herald awarded Monday night's show 4.5 stars.

Sir Paul McCartney is in New Zealand and he's loving it. 

The 75-year-old Beatles rocker posted a video from what appears to be Hawke's Bay on Thursday afternoon. It's believed he touched down via private jet on Wednesday night.




"Hey there! OK, so I finally got to NZ," McCartney, wearing a navy jumper and jeans, says to the camera. 
"Wow, it's been a little while. It's beautiful, look at that!" [gestures to background]. 

"Looking forward to the gig on Saturday night in Auckland.

"Come on, let's rock!" 

He captioned the video: "Finally in NZ x". 

McCartney will only play one show while he's here, at Mt Smart Stadium in Auckland on Saturday night. He flew in from Australia, where he's been touring this month. 

Sir Paul was last in New Zealand in 1993, as part of The New World Tour.
