Why

Join us for a gathering to connect, listen and learn how you can have a genuine impact against the government's new plans for gas exploration off the Victorian coast. Live performances by Kim Churchill and Skyscraper Stan.

The Federal Government has opened approximately 2.5 million hectares of waters off Victoria and Tasmania to new gas exploration under the 2025 Otway Basin acreage release. The current release effectively reopens oceans that communities came together to protect just 14 months ago.

This is no longer just about stopping one project; it is about drawing a line, protecting a living ocean, and honouring our responsibility to future generations who deserve a Southern Ocean that is alive, thriving, and free from industrial harm.

Tickets

Tickets are available from Humanitix.

All proceeds directly support Surfrider Foundation's conservation efforts in the Southern Ocean.
