Senior Victorians are invited to enjoy a full range of events, activities, and free travel when the 2023 Victorian Seniors Festival kicks off this October.
There are more than one million people aged over 60 who call Victoria home. The Victorian Seniors Festival is a Victorian Government initiative to support and celebrate their diverse contributions.
Eventgoers across the state can expect concerts and live music to dances, exhibitions, film festivals and activities – the festival promises something for everyone.
The Aged Care Tour returns to take the fun, magic and glamour of the festival to aged care residents throughout September and October 2023.
To support Victorians with joining the festivities, Victorian Seniors Card holders can enjoy eight days of free public transport throughout Victoria from 1 to 8 October 2023. Free travel will be available across all metropolitan services, V/Line train and coach services, and selected regional bus services outside of the myki-enabled area.
The Victorian Seniors Festival is proudly supported by all 79 local councils across the state, as well as community groups and organisations.
