Join us on Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th November 2026 for the much-loved Jassy Dean Trust Waiheke Garden Festival!

Held every two years, the festival offers a unique chance to explore a curated collection of ten stunning private gardens, most of which are not usually open to the public. There will also be plenty to enjoy along the way, including live music, local art, our popular plant sale, and food and refreshments at selected garden locations.

All proceeds go to the Jassy Dean Trust, a registered charity that supports children and families facing health crises, accidents, illness, and disability on Waiheke Island.
