Nature Shake
Nature Shake will be back in 2026 on Saturday 5 September for an afternoon of free, hands-on nature-powered adventures!
2026 Program
Nature Shake 2025 featured a number of fun hands-on nature, sustainability and creative activities. We aim to bring all that back to the 2026 program with some new editions.
Full program details will be released in July 2026.
Gumboot Toss
The Gumboot toss will be back again for Nature Shake 2026. So plenty of time to dust of the old gumboot and perfect your throw.
