Wellathlon at Hamilton Gardens
Movement, music and mindfulness set within the beautiful surrounds of Hamilton Gardens.
Wellathlon at Hamilton Gardens is a fresh take on wellness – a relaxed “triathlon” of movement, music and mindfulness set within the beautiful surroundings of Hamilton Gardens.
Across two separate sessions, you’ll walk, dance and stretch your way to better wellbeing, with no prior experience needed. Each event offers the same welcoming, uplifting experience, allowing you to choose the time that suits you best.
Designed for locals and neighbours who love fitness, yoga, or simply feeling good in their bodies, Wellathlon is all about fun, connection and community in a family-friendly atmosphere.
Event options:
- Sunset Session: Saturday 21 March, 5:45pm–9pm, or
- Sunrise Session: Sunday 22 March, 6:45am–10am

What’s included:
1. Walk + Talk (1 hour)
Begin with a mindful stroll through the Hamilton Gardens Enclosed Collection. Connect with others, enjoy unhurried conversation, and take in the changing scenery as you move.
2. Dance it Out (1 hour)
Loosen up with a sober-friendly dance party that builds from mellow to full-on groove. Whether you’re a confident dancer or a total beginner, you can close your eyes, move like nobody’s watching, and let Hi-Vibe guide the energy and atmosphere.
3. Stretch & Unwind (1 hour)
Finish with an easy, feel-good stretch and movement session led by Sophie Lister of Be Here Yoga. This is yoga designed especially for non-yogis — no tricky poses, no pressure to be flexible, and no experience needed. Expect simple stretches, gentle movement, and time to slow down, release tension, and leave feeling relaxed, grounded, and restored.
