Kick off summer this year in the picturesque Botanic Gardens with The Better Together Festival!

Our day-night festival is a family friendly fundraiser kids zone, food & drinks and live music to take us into the evening.

All funds raised at The Better Together Festival will help see all abilities equipment installed at the Lakes Edge Adventure Playground, because we feel strongly that all children deserve to play side by side.

Starting at 3pm, ours kid's zone has a range of activites to keep the young ones entertained, including:
- Face Painting
- Roaming Characters

Your ticket includes an evening of live music from the best of our local talent including:
- Phil Holmes

Winda-Mara will also perform a Welcome to Country.

We're so happy to bring the Greater Hamilton community together for The Better Together Festival on Saturday, December 2 so we can all help to create an inclusive and diverse community.
As a group, we chose this date to align with the International Day of People with Disability, celebrated every year on December 3.
Our festival shares the same values as the IDPWD program, which aims to increase public awareness, understanding and acceptance of people with disability.
