Protecting the Tūpuna Maunga: Fire Safety Closures Return for 2025

The Team from Auckland Council

Aucklanders, a friendly reminder that all 14 Tūpuna Maunga will be closed in the evenings during Guy Fawkes to help prevent fireworks-related fires. 🔥🚫
Recent fires have caused serious damage to these sacred sites — including Te Pane o Mataoho / Māngere Mountain last year. Even one spark can harm the cultural and natural beauty of our maunga.
Let’s protect these special places together.

Christmas disappointment.

Geoff from Gulf Harbour

People may wish to reconsider purchasing products made by Fyna Foods Pty Australia.
Also found a box of "Tiny Toblerones" was way too big for the contents.
