Ecofest goes to Two days in 2025
Ecofest is absolutely thrilled to announce that starting in 2025, the festival will be expanded to a phenomenal two-day event! The overwhelming excitement and support from our festival attendees has been the key factor in making this incredible decision. We are genuinely hoping that having the festival spread over two days will create a more laid-back and enjoyable experience for everyone. With this extended duration, you'll have ample opportunities to plan out your festival experience, ensuring that you don't miss out on any of the amazing exhibitors, presenters, workshops, or delectable local cuisine, all while unwinding to the fantastic sounds of our talented performers. Get ready for an unforgettable two days of Ecofest magic!
In 2025, we're calling on exhibitors, presenters, musicians, foodies, and festival-goers to join our "Random Acts of gREen" campaign. We aim to REthink our REsources and inspire REmarkable changes towards sustainability. Beyond the usual REcycling, REusing, and REfusing, let's REdiscover innovative ways to reinvent REsources for a more REsilient community. Follow us on social media as we share ideas and showcase numerous "Random Acts of Green" leading up to the festival.

Electric Vehicle Test-Drives
The Tasmanian branch of the Australian Electric Vehicle Association returned to North West ecofest with their Electrikhana roadshow, providing a short test-drive or ride in a range of electric vehicles (EVs) on site at the festival.
