Victorian Seniors Festival 2026

Celebrate positive ageing with us as the Victorian Seniors Festival returns this October. The Victorian Seniors Festival brings seniors across the state together to get active, try something new and sample what’s on offer in their local area. 

This year’s Victorian Seniors Festival theme – Connect, Create, Celebrate – invites older Victorians to come together, discover new interests and celebrate. Connect or re-connect with your interests, skills and hobbies. 

There are over 26 free and low-cost events across Yarra throughout October. From arts and crafts workshops to social outings, talks and performances, the Seniors Festival is a great opportunity to get out and try something new.
