Walking Stars 2019
Walking Stars is a night-time walking marathon that brings people together to raise vital funds in supporting local people living with cancer. Starting after sun down at Auckland Domain, the 21.2 km route takes you on a magical starlit walk past some of Auckland’s finest landmarks.
Each walker gets their own online fundraising page, with all funds raised going directly to support local people living with cancer. In 2018, Walking Stars participants together raised over $500,000, an amazing contribution.
Your entry includes:
- Event entry
- Training plans
- Walker number
- Hydration stations en route
- Walking Stars 2019 medal on completion
- Memorable experience (to be repeated again and again)
Your registration fee covers the cost of the event and fundraising efforts will support work of the Cancer Society. You will have your own fundraising page to share with your friends and family, and every dollar you raise helps fund cancer research, support and prevention.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
