Age Care Performances
We are also partnering with local aged care facilities to bring live music and entertainment directly to residents.
Throughout the month, Helen Keenan & the Cool Country Ukes will perform in-house at participating aged care facilities, creating a special opportunity for residents to enjoy music, connect with one another, and share the experience with their family and friends.
For more information on Seniors Festival, call our Community Connections team on (03) 5422 0333.
The Victorian Seniors Festival is proudly supported by local councils, community groups and organisations across the state.
