We’re bringing the summer vibes with free entertainment in the Town Square! Chill out with us as we host a series of free events as part of the NorthWest Summer Series.

Meet our Everyday Heroes
Saturday 14 February, 10am – 2 pm
Town Square, Maki Street

Enjoy a fun-filled day in the sunshine at NorthWest Shopping Centre to celebrate the everyday heroes who keep our community safe.

Head to the NorthWest Town Square and meet the teams from New Zealand Police, the New Zealand Defence Force, St John, Fire and Emergency New Zealand, Surf Life Saving and Coastguard New Zealand.

Climb aboard real emergency vehicles, meet the heroes behind the uniforms and keep the kids entertained with free face painting and balloons. A must-see day out for the whole family.
