Twilight in the Village 2026
The annual Twilight in the Village is back on Friday 4th December, 5-9pm, and this year
we're celebrating the 10th anniversary of this much-loved community event.
At the heart of the celebrations is the Lopdell Twilight Market, filling our iconic Lopdell
House with talented artists, makers and artisan stallholders from across West
Auckland. It's the perfect opportunity to support local and find something special this
festive season.
Up on the rooftop, enjoy music from The Mollymawks, free face painting for tamariki and
Christmas collage-making with local artist Naomi Azoulay.
Inside the building, there's plenty more to discover. Level 1 features more market stalls
and Upstairs Gallery. Or follow the smell of mulled wine downstairs to Lopdell's
basement theatre, where you'll find more stalls, grab a refreshment from the Titirangi
Theatre team and enjoy films screened by Robin Kewell from Flicks.
Te Uru will be staying open late. Be among the first to view the 25th Annual Portage
Ceramic Awards exhibition or browse the ever-popular Te Uru Shop.
The festivities continue throughout the village. Search for clues in the annual Treasure
Hunt, find the Christmas elves, meet Santa and stick around to see him switch on the
Titirangi Village Christmas Lights at 8.30pm.
For the past ten years, the Twilight Market has brought together artists, makers, local
organisations, businesses and community groups from Titirangi and across West
Auckland. We look forward to welcoming everyone back for another memorable evening
in the heart of Titirangi.
