Presenting partner Eke Panuku Development Auckland is dedicated to transforming and revitalising urban spaces like Henderson, making them more accessible, connected, and sustainable. The Henderson Music Trail uses creativity to create new connections, spark local engagement, and encourage environmentally friendly practices.

“Henderson is an amazing creative arts hub, and during Bike Month this February we wanted to celebrate those creative hubs by highlighting the cycling and walking connections that bring those places together.” said Richard Davison, Eke Panuku Priority Location Director.

“Our event path includes Corban’s Estate, Cranwell Park, and Falls Park, but we’re also encouraging people to take some time to explore the Northwestern Cycleway, the Twin Streams area, and enjoy the simple pleasure of seeing this city on two wheels or on foot!”
