We all know time spent staying active is good for both our physical and mental wellbeing, and as the weather warms up, our Active Maribyrnong program where residents can try some of the best activities our City has to offer – for free – is about to kick off for the season.

Want to try something new like Roller Derby, Kangatraining, Golf or Bollywood Dancing? Or join some of our old favourites like Yoga, HIIT Class or Pilates – there is something to suit every fitness level.

Registrations are now open and the complete program timetable is available for download: www.maribyrnong.vic.gov.au/This-Girl-Can

This year for the first time, we are also supporting VicHealth to facilitate the This Girl Can campaign in Maribyrnong during October. 

This new initiative aims to inspire and empower all who identify as women to get active, helping to build confidence by providing a safe and friendly environment for all to get involved and try new activities.

All who identify as women, from all cultural backgrounds and abilities, are invited to embrace physical activity in a way that suits them and their lifestyle. Join one of our free Maribyrnong Girls Can active and wellbeing programs from 9-15 October 2023.

Our Spring into Summer Series will also return this year from 30 October until 3 December.

Open to everyone, the free five-week series covers all levels of fitness and age groups. It is designed to not only encourage residents to get outdoors in local open spaces, but also showcase a range of the facilities and activities on offer across our City. Registrations open Monday 16 October.

Message from the Mayor, Councillor Sarah Carter

As we activate Maribyrnong and bring back our much-loved Spring into Summer Series, we are also pleased to be a part of the new This Girl Can campaign which comes to our City for the first time this October. Collectively, these programs will enable all of us to add some extra movement into our day with a diverse range of activities on offer.
