Ignite your passion and join us for an evening of deep conversations, meaty topics, and soul-nourishing food, surrounded by extraordinary company as we dive deep into burning topics and explore what makes Sydney tick. We've teamed up with Sydney's industry leading thinkers, taste makers, influencers, policy brains, and urban innovators to elevate the classic deep and meaningful to a whole new level.
No more boring festival panels here—imagine sitting shoulder-to-shoulder with our guests, breaking bread, and exploring what it truly means to be part of Sydney’s cultural fabric: the highs, the lows, and all the unexpected surprises in between. We'll gather around a communal table for a feast crafted by the social enterprise Plate it Forward. As we dine, we'll feast not only on a spread of delicious dishes but also on a buffet of groundbreaking ideas and mouthwatering questions from the Ethics Centre's philosophers, that will fuel our discussions well into the night. “Sydney Fringe has championed to place our local independent artists at the heart of our cities story for over 15 years. We have lead the way in advocating for regulatory and policy reform, and influenced many of the big changes our city has seen in that time. This evening is a rare opportunity to bring together all the champions we have gathered along the way, to share a meal, connect with our independent creative community, examine what culture means to all of us, build friendships to drive lasting change and add new voices into the mix” Kerri Glasscock, Sydney Fringe CEO & Festival Director
