Event Details

If you’ve got a hill, Junky Monkeys crew are ready to bring the hi-jinx for a day of creative chaos and gravity-fueled fun at Monte Cecilia Park in Hillsborough. Suitable for adventurous tamariki (and grown-ups who love to play!)

Roll up with a wild collection of “junk” — all rescued from recycling centres — and let tamariki loose to turn it into epic sliding machines.

Think boogie boards, snowboards, suitcases, frying pans… if it slides, it rides!

It’s all about movement, imagination, and a dash of daring. So grab your mates, find your balance, and let’s see what kind of ride you can create.

Proudly supported by the Puketāpapa Local Board
