4th SEP 2025 Update // Father’s Day this SUNDAY | Love local

Shop Local, Dine Local, Celebrate Dad!

Father’s Day is this Sunday, 7 September, and it’s the perfect chance to celebrate the dads, grandads, and the father figures in your lives. Many Warkworth businesses have Father’s Day specials on offer, so whether it’s a gift, a family meal, or simply a coffee together, I encourage you to keep it local. Supporting our shops, cafés, and restaurants not only makes the day special but also helps keep our town thriving.
Looking ahead, we’ve got two important dates in the diary for Warkworth:

Auckland Mayoral Candidates 2025 Debate – Wednesday 10 September, Warkworth Town Hall, 5.30pm for a 6pm start

Local Board Candidates 2025 – Wednesday 17 September, Back Bar at the Warkworth Bridgehouse, 5.30pm for a 6pm start

These are valuable opportunities to hear directly from those standing, ask questions, and get a better sense of who you want representing our area. With the growth and change we’re experiencing in Warkworth, it’s vital to have strong voices at the table.

And finally – have you noticed it? A hint of spring is in the air. The days are a little brighter, and there’s a bit more energy around town. Let’s carry that momentum forward by continuing to support each other, buy local, and keep Warkworth strong.
