Matariki 2026

Jul 12, 2026 | Active Richmond, Healthy Richmond, Heritage Richmond, RR&BA

Thanks to our beautiful community for coming along to Matariki in the Zone 2026.

A gorgeous day and night time celebration together with family and friends.

Thank you to all of the volunteers, sponsors and groups that all contributed to make this such a special night for so many. We couldn’t have asked for better weather or people to come along. Thank you!
