Community What we run for the neighbourhood

Plan a visit

Mt Albert Community Pop Up

A free family event aimed at building community and supporting people. Hosted through the summer months except January, with a variety of stalls — products for sale, community initiatives, projects and organisations that support our local community.

More than a market: local Mt Albert groups raising awareness for the services near you, the Loved Whānau clothing and homewares swap, and a friendly atmosphere.
