City North Shared Futures Festival

Across one weekend, enjoy food, art, science, performance and play – with activities for all ages at the City North Shared Futures Festival.

This is a showcase and civic invitation to see how collaboration, creativity and care are shaping inclusive and regenerative futures, in the City North Social Innovation Precinct.

At the heart of the Fest is the City North Activation Challenge, an ongoing RMIT-led initiative that transforms the precinct into a living lab, where partners and communities come together to experiment, learn, and tackle complex urban and social challenges.

The festival makes this vision tangible through hands-on workshops, outdoor explorations, future-facing games, performances and shared meals.

Presented by RMIT University with the City of Melbourne, Regen Melbourne, Melbourne International Games Week and many partners.
