Daffodil Day

  • Community
  • Events

For 40 years, Australians have united on Daffodil Day to raise vital funds, show support for those impacted by cancer, and help create a cancer-free future.

This year, Collins Square is proud to once again partner with Cancer Council to bring back one of the precinct’s most meaningful annual fundraising campaigns.

At the heart of Docklands, watch Collins Square’s iconic 4-metre-tall daffodil bloom once more, a vibrant symbol of hope, resilience, and the power of community. Bold, bright, and impossible to miss, it serves as a reminder that while cancer takes so much, together we can give back and make a difference.

Visitors will also have the opportunity to support the cause through a range of fundraising activities, with all proceeds helping Cancer Council continue its life-saving research, prevention, and support services.
