The ARGH Foundation's all-inclusive, fully accessible Festival of FUN returns on Saturday 18 November. Pre-sale tickets are now open. Alongside a pay it forward option, to purchase a ticket for someone with a disability.
Bringing together people of all abilities, this year's Festival of FUN is held at Gold Coast Sports and Leisure Centre.
Featuring a wide array of opportunities for people with a disability, their family, friends, carers and guardians to enjoy, Festival of FUN invites all members of the community to attend. Activities are designed specifically for people with a disability and hope to bring people together by creating an understanding, appreciative and inclusive day for people with a disability.
The day's events include meet and greets with leading sportspeople as well as sporting workshops at the Try Me Sports Arena. The All About You Expo showcases breakthrough innovations and technology where people with a disability can connect with service providers. And the day's FUN space offers family-friendly activities and a selection of local market stalls.
Other highlights include the Art Hub, where people with a disability can exhibit and sell their art. And Stadium FUN features a jam-packed main stage of talent quests and live performance from artists including Lisa Hunt, Mick on Wheels, Mitch Tambo and Kathrine Peereboom just for starters.
Festival of FUN also offers the option to pay it forward. For as little as $20 you can send one adult (person over 18, including their carer if required) with a disability to Festival of FUN.
