What it is

Your Big Backyard brings a whole lineup of active pursuits to Wynyard Quarter, with something to suit kids who like to climb, bounce, spin, or roll. The climbing wall and bungy trampoline tend to draw a crowd, while the skateboarding and rollerblading sessions give younger riders a chance to find their feet on wheels.

Circus workshops and interactive dance sessions round out the day with a creative edge, and further activities are scattered throughout the event for families who like to explore at their own pace. The organisers encourage arriving by public transport, bike, or on foot.

Where this fits

Every one of these is a list we keep for Auckland families.
