The calendar has at least 18 listings in the Outdoor & adventure category from Thursday 5 November 2026 onwards, Canberra time. Categories help you browse. They are not a check that an event suits a particular age, ability or interest, so read the event page before you go.

“Not listed” means the listing does not state that detail; it does not mean free or all day.
