1. Got the little ones with you?
For fun with your family, you could visit one of our parks or green spaces, take the kids to one of our pools, or go and play at Capital E's soundscapes.
2. Enjoy a picnic at one of our gardens and then grab an ice cream
A short walk or drive from the city centre and you can be at one of our beautiful gardens. Why not pack a picnic to take along?

3. Scoot, skate, or crocodile bike around the waterfront
Want to check out the waterfront but are tired of walking? Why not pick up an e-scooter and drop it back at one of our ruru racks. Or how about hiring a crocodile bike so the whole family can take turns pedalling.
4. Now for something cultural
