The Victorian Seniors Festival is a statewide initiative that celebrates ageing positively throughout the month of October and recognises the important contribution older people make to our community.

The Festival is an annual event and is an opportunity for people over 55 to learn what activities are available to them and to join clubs and groups in the local community.

Mildura Rural City Council proudly presents a local program of events to mark the festival each year that embraces the theme Connect, Create, Celebrate.
