Live Well Festival will take over South Eveleigh this October and November, offering a dynamic lineup of free and budget-friendly wellness activities.
From the 8th of October to the 2nd of November, South Eveleigh will transform into a holistic wellness hub with everything from the Unfit Run Club that finishes with beers at Brewdog to the Rage Room, where you can unleash steam by smashing random objects. Each week will bring something different, and you want to know the best part? A nod to the cozzie livs, the program was designed to be accessible with most events free or at a maximum price of $30.
The program features everything you could want to unwind, from skin checks and massages to Indonesian body percussion. We’ve rounded up a few of our favourites below, but we suggest heading to the South Eveleigh website to discover a plethora of activities to suit you and your friends.
