Join us for a fun and interactive dragon beard candy workshop at Māngere Central Community Hall.

In this hands-on session, participants will discover the traditional craft of Dragon Beard Candy — a delicate handmade sweet made from sugar that is stretched into fine strands. We will demonstrate the process step by step, and participants will also have the opportunity to observe closely and try parts of the making process.

This workshop is family-friendly and suitable for children, young people, adults and families who are interested in cultural food traditions or looking for a unique community experience.

The session will run for approximately 1.5 hour, including demonstrations and interactive participation. Guidance will be provided throughout to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

The venue is accessible by public transport, with parking available nearby. We recommend arriving 5 minutes early.

This is a free community event, supported by Mangere-Otahuhu Local Board.
