Current date and time in timezone

[JBrake]

I am looking for a way to get the current time in a time zone, for purposes of checking a certain time has passed in that time zone. e.g. An event has already started or ended on this day in a certain timezone. 

"today('Pacific/Auckland')" provides the current day at 12:00AM and not the current time.

"to_local_time" and "local_dt" are base on the timezone setting of your portal, not a specified time zone. 

Advice appreciated.

Hi @JBrake 

{{local_dt | format_datetime('medium', 'Pacific/Auckland')}}

or 

{{local_dt | format_time('medium', 'Pacific/Auckland')}}

should do the trick.
