SENaktiv fair

Colorful program for seniors and all creative people

From November 22 to 24, the SENaktiv and Creative Fair will once again take place in Innsbruck. From health to living to handicrafts, the topics are wide-ranging. 

Next weekend, the Innsbruck trade fair will once again offer a highlight for the older generation, but also for all handicraft enthusiasts. The SENaktiv & Kreativmesse takes place from Friday to Sunday, 10 am to 5 pm.

Exhibition stands, lectures and opportunities to join in
There should be all sorts of interesting things for senior citizens: On the one hand, it's all about active ageing. There will be exhibition stands, lectures and hands-on opportunities for sport, dance, entertainment, travel, education and crafts. Volunteering will play a special role, as LR Astrid Mair (ÖVP) emphasized. The question of where senior citizens can volunteer or become active will be explored.

Focus also on tinnitus, bowel and brain
On the other hand, the focus is on advice, prevention and health. Nutrition, care, law, security and IT will all play a role. This year's focus on health includes the lectures "The gut - the brain" and the topic of tinnitus. Selbsthilfe Tirol will also be represented this year with various self-help groups. Visitors to the fair will have the opportunity to talk directly to the group spokespersons or pick up information material about the groups.

Christmas anticipation with baking and handicrafts
The third theme area is all about well-being, living and the household, including beauty, wellness, fashion (also represented by the relevant branch of the Ferrari School) and fair shopping.
