Wānaka Death Cafe

Wed 20 Aug 2025, 10:30 PM - Thu 21 Aug 2025, 12:00 AM

Edgewater Hotel

Please join us for a hosted conversation about death and dying, accompanied by cake, tea, or coffee - no prior experience with death is necessary. Death Café is a global social movement that aims to increase awareness of death and help people make the most of their (finite) lives.


We gather monthly for a group-directed conversation with no agenda, objectives or themes. It is a discussion group rather than a grief support or counselling session.


We encourage you to arrive a little earlier to order food or drink at the bar if you would like or can. In addition to the comforting aspect of a hot cup of tea or coffee and a sweet treat, your purchase contributes to using the space kindly offered by the venue. Please bring any 'I've been thinking...' ideas or articles, books you've read or interesting conversions you've been having.
