Seniors Month
Join us this October as we celebrate the remarkable contributions of older residents across the Fraser Coast during Seniors Month 2025. With over 30 exciting events planned throughout the month, there's something for everyone to enjoy — from expos and competitions to picnics and live performances.
The festivities begin with the popular Over 50s Lifestyle Expo on 3 October, featuring stalls, entertainment, food, and free transport from Hervey Bay and Maryborough.
This year’s theme, ‘Shining the Light on Seniors’, highlights the everyday achievements of our older community members. The month-long program encourages seniors to stay active, social, and connected, while offering access to support services, healthy living programs, and new ways to participate in community life.
