🧡 FESTIVAL UPDATE 🧡
The Awesome Human Festival will now run from 11am – 4pm on Saturday 20 March 2027 at Speers Point Park.
Why the change?
Because if we’re creating a neuro-affirming event, we need to make decisions through a neuro-affirming lens.
When we first announced the festival, the hours were 12pm–9pm. But after reflecting on what accessibility, energy levels, sensory needs and wellbeing can look like for many people (including me), it became clear that a shorter daytime event was a better fit 😉👍🏼
🧡 The Awesome Human Festival is all about connection, community, supports, services, creativity and belonging. We want people to have the opportunity to attend, enjoy the day and leave with their cup a little fuller than when they arrived.
So mark it in your calendar:
📅 Saturday 20 March 2027
⏰ 11am – 4pm
📍 Speers Point Park, Lake Macquarie
A free community-led neurodiversity and mental health festival connecting people with supports, services and community in 1 welcoming neuro-affirming space.
