Each year NSW seniors have the chance to enjoy hundreds of free and discounted events and activities as part of the NSW Seniors Festival.

Now in its 64th year, the NSW Seniors Festival is the largest of its kind in the southern hemisphere.

In 2022 the festival will run from Friday 25 March - Sunday 3 April. During this time seniors can take part in a range of in person and online events happening right across the state.

2022 Festival highlights include the annual Premier's Gala Concerts and Seniors Festival Expo, which will both be available to participate in online. Also returning in 2022 is the Seniors Festival Comedy Show.

NSW Seniors Festival Expo

This year the NSW Seniors Festival Expo will feature over 50 exhibitors! That means more games, more giveaways, more expert advice and more fun to be had.

The Expo will take place on Wednesday 30 and Thursday 31 March at the International Convention Centre in Sydney, and the best part is it's FREE!

Those who can't attend the Expo in person have the chance to attend online, and this year's online offering is even bigger than before.

Online Expo attendees will learn from expert exhibitors as they deliver virtual workshops on nutrition, yoga and fitness, finance, home organising and more. A livestream showcasing performances from the Expo stage will also be available to watch online.
