about

Right in the heart of the city of Melbourne, the Sustainable Living Festival is a three-day celebration of cultural innovation and creativity.

The Festival draws together diverse approaches that focus on social and ecological sustainability. Staged at Federation Square, this unique event fuses interactive displays, demonstrations, artworks, exhibits, designs, films, multimedia and live performances.

Together we present a rich program that aims to increase awareness of sustainability, and creates new opportunities of expression and communication for individuals and groups to accelerate the uptake of sustainable living.

"The Sustainable Living Festival is a manifestation of a commitment to healing our environment, a demonstration of diverse proposals for changing our behaviour and reducing the damaging impact we are having."
Dr Moss Cass, Australia's first environment minister, SLF patron
