Let's celebrate!
October is a time to celebrate connection, community and positive ageing through the 2026 Ageing Positively Festival, proudly presented in conjunction with the Victorian Seniors Festival.
We invite you to come together, try something new and enjoy meaningful, community-led experiences. Whether you want to explore a new hobby, get active, learn something new or spend time with friends, there is something for everyone.
The festival is proudly delivered in partnership with Council, community groups, neighbourhood houses, community centres and local support organisations. Join us as we connect, create and celebrate together.

Held across venues throughout the City of Casey, the festival features 90 free or low-cost events, including the exciting new Big Day Out, hands-on workshops, guided tours and informative sessions designed to inspire, entertain and connect.
