Northshore Diwali - Festival of Lights ✨️

Northshore Diwali 2026, the fourth annual Festival of Lights, was scheduled for Saturday 24 October from 12pm to 9pm at Smales Farm, 72 Taharoto Road, Takapuna, on Auckland's North Shore. North Shore Community Events Ltd organised it with Team Punish & Anna (Barfoot & Thompson). The organisers say they started the first Northshore Diwali in 2023 to bring people from different cultures together. This year's programme was billed as a family-friendly day of music, dance, culture, food, entertainment and fireworks. The event was listed as all ages, with free parking at the venue. The festival ran on a single day, 24 October. For other festivals and community events in Auckland after that date, Palaner lists upcoming events across the city.
