Ecofest 2025 | Beeswax Candle Making

  • 75 Bells Road Auckland, Auckland, 2010 New Zealand (map)

Step back in time at Historical Village, where everything was homemade and homegrown—when sustainability was simply a way of life.

Gain insight into the daily work of the past and take part in a hands-on historical candle-making demonstration with a costumed guide. Meet the bees and craft your own candle from a beeswax sheet.

Explore 30 historic buildings and stroll through beautiful heritage gardens across the 7-acre site. Enjoy outdoor games and crafts to keep the little ones entertained. Bring a picnic or grab a bite at the Homestead Café. Make a day of it!
