Come as you are. Stay as long as you need.
Thrive Wellness Expo is a free entry day bringing healers, practitioners, artists, makers, music and food together at Riverton Primary School on 21 November 2026. A full day of connection, nourishment, and discovery for everyone in Southland.
Free to attend. Pay directly for what calls you on the day. A session, a piece of art, a remedy, a meal. No bookings required. Simply arrive and wander.
Priority access for persons with disabilities.
01
Book a one on one session on the day with bodyworkers, energy healers, somatic practitioners, naturopaths, oracle readers, and more. The healing side of the hall holds quiet space for personal sessions.
02
Original works, prints, ceramics, textiles, and handcrafted pieces by Southland creatives. Collect something made with care. Commission a piece. Spend time in the presence of beauty.
03
Natural remedies, skincare, crystals, herbs, tinctures, and handmade wellness goods from local producers and makers who pour genuine care into everything they create.
04
Nourishing kai, plant based bites, teas, tonics, and something for the sweet tooth. Good food that feeds the whole day, made by people who care about what they put into the world.
The hall is arranged around a living, breathing centre.
No workshops to book. No seats to find. Come as you are. Stay as long as you need. Move when you feel called. The three pods offer collective practices, movement, talks, and tasters throughout the day.
