Indigo Seniors Festival 2025
The Victorian Seniors Festival is a month-long celebration that creates opportunities to participate in fun, free and low-cost events throughout October. The festival encourages active ageing, community participation and meaningful social interaction. Running annually in October, this year's theme is Connect, Create, Celebrate.
Events in Indigo Shire are run through our libraries programing and historic precincts. Community groups and seniors clubs are supported to host events through the Indigo Seniors Grants Program with grants of up to $500 available through the Victorian State Government Active Living Grant.
