Located in the heart of the Mackenzie, Lake Tekapo is the host for the annual Breathe Tekapo Wellness Festival, next taking place from 16 to 18 May 2025. Breathe Tekapo is the first of its kind in New Zealand, showcasing the benefits of spending time in nature and drawing on inspiration from the stunning natural beauty of the region. 

Breathe Tekapo includes a full weekend program of keynote speakers, activities, and workshops to incorporate the four key themes of the event, Nature, Movement, Food, and Inspiration. Participants can select the sessions and workshops they wish to attend while enjoying the local Tekapo hospitality. 

The event has been established for those with an interest in their own health and well-being. Through thought-provoking and informative workshops and experiences, Breathe Tekapo aims to educate and inspire attendees to make positive changes in their lifestyles. 

The ultimate goal of the event is to build upon Tekapo’s reputation as a world-class wellness destination and create an annual event for visitors to return to in the future.
