Young people in Hobsons Bay will have no excuse to be bored this summer thanks to a wide range of events, picnics and entertainment scheduled as part of the Summer in the Bay series.
Organised by Hobsons Bay council, the series returns for 2025 with no-cost or low-cost activities aimed at young people aged 12 and over across January and February.
Whether it’s playing games by the beach, tackling escape rooms, interacting with wildlife or exploring nature, all tastes and interests will be catered for in the more than 30 events and activities scheduled.
“We’re putting on a great program this summer,” said Hobsons Bay mayor, Daria Kellander, encouraging local residents to get involved.
“Our Sustainable Communities Youth team are providing over 30 activities and events at this year’s Summer in Bay series.”
She said the series was designed to be affordable so all young people in Hobsons Bay could join in.
“You can meet new people and learn about a range of exciting topics without breaking the bank.”
The Summer in the Bay series kicks off on January 8 with a tour of the Cheetham Wetlands, followed by a wildlife display in Newport, badminton in Altona, art in Altona Meadows and beach hangouts in Williamstown on January 14.
Movies, games nights, street art tours and escape rooms are among the activities on offer during the series.
Some events do require advanced booking, while age restrictions vary depending on the activity.
