Offbeat

"Offbeat" is a Parkinson’s Disease fundraising and awareness concert designed to support improved treatments, enhance quality of life, and help find a cure! But it's not your standard rock concert—definitely not your standard fundraiser.

Join us for a slightly different Sunday sesh, featuring a live podcast with Renegade's founder, Hannah Moltoni; her brother, Leigh, who was diagnosed with Young Onset PD at 29; and Parkinson's Australia's CEO, Olivia Nassaris. The evening kicks on with great tunes by local band Embers and Perth's favorite up-and-comer, Mitch Santiago! There'll be food, drinks aplenty, and cool things up for grabs.

Parkinson's is the fastest-growing neurological condition globally. In Australia, it's the second most common neurological disease, impacting 150,000 Australians - a number projected to more than triple by 2050. Despite these numbers, funding, awareness, and support for PD remain shockingly low. The need for them has never been greater and is only increasing.

Young Onset Parkinson’s affects 10–20% of those diagnosed, some as young as their 20s, robbing them of their futures and often leading to early death. We need to move away from viewing it solely as an "old person's" disease and push for public awareness and treatments that accommodate younger sufferers as well as the elderly, all while continuing the search for a cure.

While funds for research are vital, raising public awareness is just as crucial. A better understanding of PD and its myriad symptoms would make a real difference in improving the quality of life and mental health for people living with PD.

All ticket sales go to Parkinson's Australia and the Shake It Up Foundation, so grab one (or a few!) and be part of a movement that's changing lives one beat at a time!
