Turtles After Dark

Do conservation, culture and comedy fit together? Let's find out!

A one-of-a-kind evening bringing together some of Australia's leading turtle scientists with one of Australia's most beloved First Nations comedy super stars Kevin Kropinyeri for a night of laughs and learning, all in the name of turtle conservation. 

Ticket price includes pizza and platters. Bar open for drinks purchase.

Turtles are our often-forgotten underwater ‘heroes in a half shell’.  With Kevin's sharp comic wit tying it all together, our entertaining line up of passionate researchers will leave you with a deeper appreciation and understanding of these amazing creatures.

You'll learn what the life of a turtle researcher is really like, what threatens these ancient reptiles (the turtles not the researchers), what's already being done to support and protect them, and how you can be part of their future.  

Join us for a night of surprising discoveries and genuine laughs. Expect warmth, wit, and just the right amount of chaos.
