After a fun and sold out inaugural event at the 2023 Nature Festival, Birds & Bingo is back in 2024, with more birds, and more bingo!

Go beyond 22 – two little ducks – with a fun, educational and conversational afternoon of birds and bingo, presented by Nature Foundation. Enjoy several rounds of bird-inspired bingo (with prizes!) hosted by Bingomaster and bird nerd, Sputnik, interspersed with some short conversations with people working with endangered native Australian birds.

This year we are exciting to have engaging ecologists Dr Hugh McGregor and Imogen Marshall join us to chat with Sputnik about what attracted them to work in conservation, what types of things they get up to at work, and their favourite native bird species of course!

Whether you’re also a bird nerd, or simply love a fun afternoon playing games; bingo, birds, food and drinks — what’s not to love!?
