Sustainable House Day is an event from Renew that provides the opportunity to explore some of Australia’s most inspiring homes, and learn from the people who designed them, built them, and live in them.

Following a day of open-home tours around the country on 21st April 2024, a month of Extension Sessions offer a deep dive into a range of sustainability topics. Australia's best architects, designers, tradespeople and experts will offer guidance, and homeowners will offer first hand experience. If you're considering a sustainable build or renovation, this series is for you, with lots of time for Q&A.

This pass will give you access to all of the 2024 Sustainable House Day Expert Sessions at a discounted price. Members of Renew receive a further discount on Extension Session passes. Feel free to grab a membership or subscription to Renew or Sanctuary magazine before you book to access the discount!
