“So, why should I attend?”🤷♀️
We’re so glad you asked.
If you’re looking to BREAK FREE of the limits that bind you – the suffocating four walls of sameness that
close you in.
If you’re looking to IGNITE connection with people – to be seen, heard, respected and supported.
If you’re looking to SPARK creativity – to swing open the doors and step into the world, open to
whatever inspiration strikes.
If you’re looking to BLAZE your own path, write your own story, take back control and do things that
light you up in side.
Then FLARE* Festival is for you. We’ve got your name in shining lights, your goals tattooed on our heart,
your dreams underneath our pillow and our hand outstretched ready to walk beside you in it all🫶🫶
Want to get involved?
Got something interesting to bring to the table? We're all about inclusivity at FLARE*, so we want whatever you're cooking!
There are a number of ways that you can spice things up at FLARE* fest:
🧘♀️Run a session: there are still some spots that need filling. And the way we see it, the more brilliance we have blaring around us, the better.
If you've got a business, a message, a story, a talent, a gift, or just a desire to inspire others, we want to
hear from you. We make space for anything and everyone; the weird, the wonderful, the whimsical and
the "what the f*cks!?"
🛍️Stalls: We have only one rule at FLARE*: whatever you're selling, it's gotta be inspiring. Bonus points if it’s of
benefit to others. Think things that make people feel good, their lives easier, they can share with someone else or that sends them home extra giddy.
Double bonus points if it’s something that is good for our good green Mama Earth.
🎁Sponsor: As well as many many thanks and eyes of adoration, Sponsors of any kind will receive high exposure in the lead up to the festival, as well as on the day!
