Northland Dying Matters Week Events in Whangārei & Mangawhai

Dying Matters Week Northland

Go With Grace is bringing Dying Matters Week back to Whangārei in 2026 with an expo-style event at McKay Stadium on Thursday 10th and Friday 11th September.

This year’s campaign – ‘Shaping Your Legacy’, is about empowering people of all ages to make informed, meaningful decisions for their future, and for those they care about. Legacy is more than what we leave behind financially; it includes the plans we put in place, the conversations we have, and the way we live and support one another through life’s later stages and beyond.

The programme will include presentations from experts, information booths and interactive spaces. Come and listen to talks, with plenty of time in between to connect with local businesses and service providers and try something new.
