Aimed at 8- to 15-year-olds, but also suitable for younger or older audiences and for the family to attend. 

Great opportunity if you have not skated before, are just starting out or want to learn some nifty new tricks. 

This great 'have a go' youth skateboard event has:

  • skate demonstrations
  • best-trick comps
  • learn to skate with the Skate Skool team
  • free sausage sizzle
  • free skateboard hire

Supported by the Waimāero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board, Skate Skool and the Bishopdale Menz Shed.

The event is held in conjunction with our great community event Celebrate Bishopdale being held on the main park. This includes entertaining stage performances from local school groups, artists and organisations.

There will be numerous information stalls, have-a-go activities, arts and crafts. There is food for sale on the day and local groups will be selling their wares for fundraising.
