Bayleys Skateathon

Sat 28 June

Skate with Purpose!

The Bayleys Skateathon for Child Cancer Foundation is a 12-hour community ice skating event with one goal: raise funds for Child Cancer Foundation. Whether you’re skating one hour or 12, you’re making a difference. Encourage friends, whānau, or your workplace to sponsor your skate time. Team entries welcome: schools, clubs, friend groups, and local businesses. Tickets start from $10 per person, giving you an hour of skate time. The ultimate goal is to have 50 people on the ice rotating every hour except those who will skate the whole 12 hours. All funds raised will go directly towards wrapping one-to-one care around Kiwi kids with cancer and the families who love them.

All profits go directly to Child Cancer Foundation. The Bayleys Skateathon for Child Cancer Foundation will be held on the Bayleys Hanmer Springs Ice Rink in the centre of the village. It’s all part of the Hanmer Springs Alpine Winter Festival – celebrating winter, fun, and giving back. Register below to secure your slot or make an early donation through the link below. You can show up on the day to pay and skate.
