Adelaide Vigil For Christchurch Victims Tonight

South Australians will get the chance to pay their respects to the victims of the Christchurch massacre tonight at a vigil in Elder Park.

The event, which has been organised by the City Council and State Government will start at 7.45pm and people of all faiths are encouraged to attend.

It comes as the first funerals for the victims have started to happen in New Zealand - a father and son.

Authorities are hoping to reopen one of the Mosques involved in the attack tomorrow, they have tradies working round the clock to make sure it's in an acceptable condition.
