250+ projects. One mission — stronger communities.

The 2026 festival, themed 'Return to the Light', ran on Saturday 27 June from 2pm to 10pm — combining live music, ethical food and maker markets, panel discussions, family activities and a full workshop program spanning native-flavour cooking on coals, organic gardening, origami, bush tukka talks and tastings, garden journaling, AcroYoga and guided farm tours.

Our involvement spans multi-year event and program delivery: stage and artist management, workshop and stallholder coordination, volunteer engagement, sponsor and stakeholder liaison, accessibility and zero-waste operations, and the pay-it-forward ticketing approach that keeps the festival open to everyone. Entry is free for First Nations attendees, and the festival is delivered on Yuggera and Turrbal Country in partnership with First Nations collaborators.

Across previous years the festival has grown steadily as a fixture of Brisbane's winter calendar — each year building on the same foundations of community-led programming, local creatives, sustainability practice and the solstice lantern parade, with support from partners including Brisbane City Council.

As part of a national reform, the centres remove traditional barriers to care, offering immediate, no-referral access to support, assessment and ongoing care pathways.

We led across delivery and operational readiness — aligning facilities, workforce, governance and service models to ensure both centres were safe, functional and ready for day-one operations.

Co-designed with community and stakeholders, the model is grounded in accessibility, inclusion and lived experience.

Young people design, build and sell furniture while learning trade, business and teamwork skills.

Supporting up to 24 participants per week, the program provides structured, practical experience that builds confidence, capability and clear pathways into work — especially for those disengaged from traditional education.

Our role spanned artist management, live audio and stage management, marketing, community partnerships, and coordination of stalls and workshops — ensuring a seamless, high-quality event experience from planning through to delivery.

Working across planning, coordination and delivery, we ensured the move was executed with minimal disruption to staff, services and stakeholders — managing fit-out, technology transition, timelines and full operational readiness.

The new workspace was designed to improve collaboration, efficiency and long-term scalability while maintaining uninterrupted service delivery throughout the transition.

Working with local stakeholders, the program delivered workshops, live music, sport and creative activities including ukulele building, art and community gatherings — creating safe, welcoming spaces for all ages.

Designed to meet people where they are, the approach used culturally grounded, informal engagement to reduce stigma and open conversations around mental health, while strengthening pathways into local support services.

We delivered stage and artist management, performer coordination, event logistics and stakeholder engagement, working closely with Central Highlands Regional Council and community partners.

In the lead-up, we also delivered community engagement programs with young people, CALD communities and people with disability — supporting participation in performances and creative outcomes.
