Let’s build this together:

The Surf Coast is growing- fast. And so are the stakes. For 16 years, Nightjar Festival has pulsed at the heart of this community, celebrating what makes our region iconic. But as pressures rise and priorities shift, how do we protect and evolve what we’ve built? This is your exclusive invitation to sit down with the people behind the festival, crack open the books, and help determine its future. Whether you’ve lived here forever or just arrived, your input is part of the legacy.

You’re invited to Nightjar’s Annual Community Financial Briefing & Strategy Supper - but this isn’t a dry meeting in a town hall. It’s an intimate, high-level strategy supper at GROW, the founder’s café in Anglesea. Over a beautiful dinner and drinks, you’ll hear directly from Nightjar founder Lyndelle as we reveal exactly how the festival runs:

● How it’s funded (yes, by sponsors!)

● What it costs to bring $3,000,000 into the local economy each year

● And what it will take to not only keep it going-but grow it into something even more meaningful

You’ll get access to private financials, the 2026 roadmap, and an open mic to share your insights, critiques, and big ideas you’d love us to bring to life. This is a rare, under-the-hood moment usually reserved for the boardroom- and you’re on the guest list.

For just $30, you’ll receive:

🍽 A beautiful shared dinner at GROW

🍷 Wine & local drinks

📊 A look into Nightjar’s finances and future strategy

📣 A chance to share your ideas and speak directly to decision-makers

🧠 Exclusive insights into the future of a festival you love

🤝 Powerful local connections with others shaping the Surf Coast

You might’ve wondered how the festival really works… or felt like decisions are made without community input. After this, you’ll leave feeling seen, informed, and part of something bigger. This isn’t just a meeting- it’s a movement to keep our Nostalgic Nightjar; a local, loved, and community focused event here with all the values we all live by.

● Who is this for? Anyone who cares about the Surf Coast and wants to be part of something real. Creatives, business owners, change-makers, new locals, loud locals- you’re all welcome.

● What will it look like? A powerful conversation over dinner. Honest, inspiring, forward-thinking.

● Where & when? 6pm GROW in Anglesea on Wednesday 25th June 2025.

● Why $30? Most importantly it’s our way to buffer and ensure the room is full of people who are genuinely invested. But it also feeds you and “hydrates” you.

● How will this change things? You’ll help shape the next era of Nightjar. This is your seat at the table to have a serious impact on the festival and town you love. .

💌 Bonus: We’re currently curating our 2026 sponsorship lineup. If you're a business owner or brand wanting to collaborate, and get amazing exposure please contact lyndelle@nightjarfestival.com.au for early consideration.
