New Zealand Masters Games

The New Zealand Masters Games alternates between Whanganui (home of Suzuki) and Dunedin each year. With around 5,000 competitors, this iconic event is the largest Masters multi-sport festival in New Zealand and quite simply, a lot of fun.

The 2025 Downer New Zealand Masters Games will be held in Whanganui from 31 January to 9 February. With over 60 different sports and activities on offer, there is something for everyone aged 20 to triple digits. The Game turns the city into the ultimate playground for Masters participants and their supporters, and the fun doesn’t stop when the whistle blows!

At the heart of it all is the Games Village, host to a range of events and entertainment over 10 fun-filled days and nights. It’s your home for registration, relaxation and celebration and also the place to go to grab some new-look merchandise and have your hard earned medals engraved.

If you are at the games this year, you are likely to spot a Suzuki or two helping volunteers deliver medals and provide assistance to the many sport venues around the city!

Every entry in the 2025 Downer New Zealand Masters Games also goes in the draw to win a Suzuki Vitara Hybrid for a year – find out more and check out what’s on offer on the NZ Masters Games website.
