FROM an insider’s tour of Karangi Dam to a free classical concert in the North Coast Regional Botanic Garden, older residents are set to celebrate in style at this year’s NSW Seniors Festival.
Held from 2-15 March under the theme Live Life in Colour, the City of Coffs Harbour’s program features a vibrant mix of low-cost and free events designed to inform, connect and inspire.
Highlights include a coach tour and guided talk at Karangi Dam, a Seniors Fest morning at Yarrila Place, a sensory-focused gallery tour at Yarrila Arts and Museum, a special screening at the Jetty Memorial Theatre, and Petals and Preludes – an uplifting outdoor performance by the Coffs Harbour City Orchestra.
Mayor Nikki Williams said the festival is a celebration of the region’s valued seniors community, many of whom contribute through volunteering and civic life.
Residents aged 60 to 74 represent Coffs Harbour’s largest age cohort, making this year’s colourful program a meaningful opportunity to recognise and celebrate their contribution.
