Olympic Village summer event series

Next date: Saturday, 23 January 2027 | 10:00 AM to 02:00 PM

Join us at Olympic Village Green for a family-friendly event series bringing people together to have fun, connect and celebrate our local community.

Across two events, there'll be live music, creative workshops, activities for children and families, community stalls, games, food and plenty of opportunities to get involved. You can also discover activities and programs offered by the nearby leisure centre and library.

Each event will feature a different mix of activities, so come along to one or join us for both.
