Dear all,

We have a great line up of events and classes this March here at the Mt Eden Village Centre.

We are excited that Johnny Jungle is back with their fantastic Plant Sale this Saturday 2 March from 10.00am to 3.00pm. There will be wild deals and steals but most of all there will be a wide range of gorgeous, beautiful plants that will look great in your home or office. Visit their Facebook page for more.

The much loved Artists in Eden day is on Saturday 16 March.  Based in the Village Centre and spilling outside, you can watch Artists at work creating stunning works from 10.00am to 2.00pm followed by an Auction of these works at 2.30pm.  Come along and talk to the Artists or watch an artwork progress from start to finish. Information about the Artists and the event is here.

VillageMusic presents Jackie Bristow and March Punch in Concert on Saturday 23 March at 8.00pm. Jackie is one of our true internationally recognised Kiwi divas and Mark has a musician’s pedigree that is longer than your arm. Together, Jackie and Mark are a terrific musical duo and this second VillageMusic Soirée for 2024 is yet another not to be missed occasion. Bring friends, bring family and BYO. Tickets are here.

Everything is unique at the Mt Eden Craft Market which is here on Saturday 9 March from 9.30am to 3.00pm. This is a great opportunity to support local craftspeople and find loads of beautiful handmade treasures and tasty treats, perfect for yourself or to gift. Come and enjoy the market, support New Zealand businesses and help them grow. Facebook for more information.

The Timeless Preloved Fashion Market is here on Saturday 30 March from 10.00am to 3.00pm. The market has a focus on preloved, retro and vintage clothing and accessoriesand is here on the last Saturday of every month. The Mt Eden Wellbeing Market is here on the same day and time and is Central Auckland’s regular monthly mind, body and spirit market.

The kids have waited all year for the return of Little Day Out and thanks to all our supporters, it is back on Saturday 6 April from 10.00am to 1.00pm. We can’t wait to open our doors to the younger members of our community and see them enjoy the wonderful Free activities. Check out our programme here. Big thanks to our supporters the Albert-Eden Local Board, Foundation North, Ray White Mt Eden, the Mt Eden Village Business Association and local businesses and of course our wonderful volunteers.
