KICK BACK, UNWIND & HEAR IT STRAIGHT FROM THE LEGENDS
Join us for an inspiring sundowner session as three former AFL legends share raw, real insights into mental health, life in elite sport, and what it takes to juggle pressure, performance, and personal wellbeing.

Whether you're a die-hard footy fan or just here for the vibes, this is your chance to hear raw, honest insights and ask the burning questions you've always wanted answered. 

All proceeds go towards life-changing mental health and resilience programs in WA communities. So, grab your crew, settle in with a drink, and let’s have some big chats that matter.

🎤 LIVE PANEL DISCUSSION
Hosted in a Q&A format, you’ll hear behind-the-scenes stories, career lessons, and powerful takeaways — straight from those who’ve lived it.
