Play Week 2025

Play Week is about celebrating the value of play in our communities.

Play gives us freedom and chances to take risks. It’s how our tamariki build a life-long love of being active, make sense of the world around them, get creative, build friendships, and learn skills.

Swings in trees

Twenty new tree swings were installed across the city's parks as part of Play Week 2025, offering visitors of all ages a chance to enjoy spontaneous, active fun outdoors.
