Calling all curious minds, from young explorers to the young at heart! Have you ever found a rock and wondered what it was? Want to learn more about the unique volcanoes around Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland? Curious as to why some volcanoes erupt with lava flows and others with huge explosions?
Join the DEVORA (DEtermining VOlcanic Risk in Auckland) team at this free event as part of the Auckland Heritage Festival 2025 for some fun and interactive volcano experiments.
Here you can see examples of both explosive and oozing eruption styles, and check out our display of rocks and minerals from the Auckland Volcanic Field and far beyond. Have a chat with volcano scientists and geologists from the University of Auckland, ask any questions you have about volcanoes, earthquakes, rocks, and the natural world around us.
