Please note: Due to poor weather forecasted for Friday, 11 July, Glow Kids will only take place on Saturday, 12 July this weekend.

Glow Kids is a fun and family-focused evening activation on The Strand (grass area opposite Hamilton Street), designed to engage tamariki aged 13 and under through a combination of immersive lighting, interactive dance classes and silent disco experiences.

The short high-energy 15-minute dance sessions designed for tamariki are run by local studio Precision Dance, encouraging movement and confidence.

Age-appropriate content and instructors ensure a fun, welcoming environment.

Multiple silent disco sessions are hosted every Friday and Saturday evening, 5-8pm featuring:

  • Up to 8 x 20-minute sessions per night (5pm–8pm)
  • Single-channel headsets with light-up disco themes
  • Maximum 30 children per session
  • Sessions curated for different age groups (e.g., under 6s, no-parents rounds)
  • Professional DJ, UV/disco lighting, and glow accessories
On Saturday, 5 July, the experience will be elevated with free neon face painting and a glow performer.

No need to book, simply turn up between 5-8pm and sign up for your boogie!

Supported by Tauranga City Council.
