Redwoods Children's Day 2017. Photo/File

A weekend "to celebrate children from around the world" is coming up at the start of next month.

Rotorua Children's Weekend is back with a range of community groups and organisations working alongside Rotorua Lakes Council staff for the event.

On Saturday, March 3, from 10am until 3pm, participants will follow a map around central Rotorua collecting stamps from each "country" on an event passport.

Three passport stamps will put participants in the draw to win from a prize pool.

The second of the family-friendly days will be the Redwoods Children's Day on Sunday, March 4, from 1.30pm until 4.30pm.

Families are encouraged to bring along a picnic.
