Saturday 18 March – Sunday 16 April 2023

EcoFest is growing
To build on a longstanding collaboration between EcoMatters and Kaipātiki Project, #ecofest2023 is going regional! EcoMatters, Kaipātiki Project, Beautification Trust and Waiheke Resources Trust have teamed up to collectively showcase all that Tāmaki Makaurau has to offer in the sustainability space. The festival has a new look but the same passion for local action and impact!
Registrations for events taking place in West Auckland have now closed. Check out more than 300 events taking place across Tāmaki Makaurau here.

West Auckland programme
Printed West Auckland event programmes will be available at EcoMatters and libraries, community centres, cafes and retail outlets across the west from early March.
