Bike Curious: A Free Bike-Powered Celebration Of Movement, Music, And Climate Action

Bike Curious is a joyful, bike-focused, all-ages community takeover of Falls Park in Henderson.

Expect an afternoon and evening packed with live music and DJs, jaw-dropping BMX shows, and hands-on, playful activities for all ages. Share kai at the Bikers Banquet (a community potluck), explore an antique and unusual bike display, take in bike-themed short films, ride the pump-track, pedal your way to a bike-powered smoothie, tune your ride at the Bike Hub, learn to ride a unicycle, or give your wheels a glow-up at the “Pimp Your Bike” workshop.

As the sun goes down we light up the night with a glow ride through Cranwell Park and the Henderson Creek Path - complete with the renowned Vospertron glowing robots.

BMX showcases from world-class riders:
Jed Mildon – first person in the world to land a quadruple backflip on BMX
Hugh Wotherspoon – Spoonworks legend and backbone of the NZ BMX scene
Riley Neilson – known for the biggest tricks in NZ BMX
Brooklyn Williams – #1 dirt rider in Aotearoa

Bike and scooter parking will be available at key locations - please bring a lock.

At its heart, Bike Curious is a community climate action event - using fun, creativity, and culture to celebrate the joy and practicality of getting around by bike, scooter, and on foot, while imagining a more connected and equitable future.
