Hot Pink Walk 2026

The iconic HOT Pink Walk returns on Wednesday 28 October 2026!

Join the celebration as we paint the town pink in support of those affected by breast cancer.

Each year, thousands of people come together for the HOT Pink Walk, dressed in every shade of pink imaginable and showcasing creative, colourful, and sometimes outrageous costumes. It's a fun-filled event that celebrates life, honours loved ones, and supports those whose lives have been touched by breast cancer.

Starting from the beautiful waterfront at the southern end of The Strand, this easy 3km walk winds through Tauranga City Centre, with lively entertainment hotspots along the way to keep the energy high and the smiles flowing.

Entry is just $10 for adults (13+) and $5 for children, with kids under 3 free.

Bring along your furry friends for the fabulous Pink Pooch Parade, where there are prizes to be won! Entry to the parade is by gold coin donation.

All funds raised go directly to Breast Cancer Support Service Tauranga Trust, helping provide practical and emotional support from people who have experienced breast cancer to those currently facing it.

With live music, entertainment, the Pink Pooch Parade, and plenty of pink spirit, this event is all about coming together, having fun, and making a difference.

So gather your whānau, friends, workmates, and four-legged companions, and join us for an unforgettable day of fun, community, and support.

Let's paint the town pink! 💗
