What’s On Today?

There is no shortage of activities in Tauranga today with something happened in just about every part of the town.

Mount Maunganui has been transformed into a sporting hub with the Mount Multisport Festival and Port of Tauranga Half Ironman joining forces.


Big rigs are set to invade Baypark this afternoon.

Fraser Cove is a hub for adrenaline junkies and car enthusiast with the Wheels for Cure Kids event, which is due to kick off at 10am.

The event is free, but people will be walking around with buckets collecting donations for Cure Kids. All money raised today will be going to the Cure Kids organisation.

Last but not least, some of the biggest wheels are returning to Mount Maunganui to invade ASB Baypark this afternoon.

The free display of trucks is returning to the stadium to show support for speedway and to raise funds for the Koru Care New Zealand charitable trust.

The trust works to make the dreams of Kiwi children, who have cancer, kidney disease, or heart problems, come true.

The free display is at ASB Baypark from 4pm-10.30pm.
