Seniors Festival 2025 – Be a Host and Join the Celebration!

The Whitehorse Seniors Festival is back this October, and we’re inviting community groups, clubs, and organisations to take part in this incredible statewide celebration!

Last year, over 70 dedicated hosts delivered an amazing 160+ activities—bringing joy, connection, and inspiration to our community. Let’s make 2025 even bigger and better!

What can you host? The possibilities are endless!  Here are just a few ideas:
- Garden tours – Enjoy the beauty of nature while socialising
- Health & wellness talks – Guest speakers with morning tea
- Dance sessions – From ballroom to line dancing!
- Pickleball / Tennis / Bowls "come and try" – Fun and easy to learn!
- Art, craft & hobby workshops – Get creative and share your skills
- Live music, trivia, or storytelling – Celebrate community spirit

By hosting an event, you’ll not only contribute to a vibrant festival but also help reduce social isolation—sparking new interests, welcoming fresh faces, and potentially gaining new members for your group!

Now’s your chance to get involved! Whether your group has participated before or is new to the festival, we’d love to support your ideas and help bring them to life. The official theme is yet to be announced, but you can start planning now!
