In conjunction with the Victorian Seniors Festival, the two week long celebration recognises the valuable contribution people aged 55+ have made and continue to make to our community.
We are disappointed that we could not present live (in-person) events for the 2021 Festival, however we have programmed a range of free online events and activities for you to enjoy.
There are also several events held in the Russian language hosted by number local seniors groups.
You can access the 2021 Festival program by visiting the Seniors Festival webpage or downloading the program (PDF).
And to get things started you are invited to kick off Seniors Festival 2021 by joining our:
