THE Elvis & Marilyn Concert sold out, marking a bright highlight of this year’s Seniors Month. Presented by Get Rhythm, the show captured the essence of iconic stars Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe, delivering a lineup that included Suspicious Minds, Viva Las Vegas, Hound Dog, I Wanna Be Loved by You, and Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend.
Organisers anticipated welcoming 656 or more seniors and noted the attendance of the Mayor and Councillors in a show of strong community support. The event also featured an Information Sharing Zone, where attendees connected with local services and support providers.
Alongside the concert, the Greater Shepparton Seniors Festival delivered a full program of events across the month of October 2025. The Seniors Guide was distributed through The Shepparton Adviser and the Shepparton News, and hard copies were available at Council’s Customer Service, the Riverlinks Box Office, and the GV Library. It was also shared online through Access and Positive Ageing networks and Council’s website.
The 2025 festival theme Connect Create Celebrate encouraged older Victorians to stay curious, stay active and explore new opportunities.
With more than 100 events held across Greater Shepparton there was something for everyone in the program.
