Young at Heart Festival

We are kicking ageism to the kerb.

The Young at Heart Festival, 30 September – 6 October, is a week where we celebrate our older community – parents, grandparents, friends, and neighbours – who do so much for the city.

The festival wraps around the official International Day of Older Persons on 1 October.

From Zumba classes to art exhibitions, the festival includes great events to get involved with, social events to make new friends and funky fitness to make you feel good.

Many of these activities offer a free taster just for the festival, and are regularly running throughout the year. You never know, you might discover a new fitness class or activity you absolutely love.

You can download a Young at Heart Festival programme, which includes many of the great activities to do between 30 September and 6 October, or get a hardcopy from any of our Te Ao Mārama Tauranga City Libraries. Young at Heart Festival programme (4.7mb pdf)
