About this Event
Welcome to the Age Is Just A Number one-day forum – Celebrating Experience, Fueling the Future. Returning on Thursday, October 1, 2026 at 9:30 AM, we’re excited to once again host this inspiring event at The Devon Hotel. Bringing together experts, community leaders, and locals, the day will explore how we can age proactively and live well here in Taranaki.
We’ll focus on maintaining vitality, celebrating the wisdom that comes with experience, and showcasing local resources that support wellbeing at every stage of life. Following last year’s sold-out success, this year promises to be even bigger and better.
Join us for a fun, informative, and uplifting day—connect with like-minded people, enjoy engaging activities, and maybe even learn something new. Don’t miss this opportunity to challenge stereotypes and embrace the idea that age is truly just a number!
