Sustainable Living Festival, 8-9 November, PW1

Come and celebrate and GET CONNECTED.

Now in its 16th year, the Sustainable Living Festival has long been the highlight of the Tasmanian event calendar.  At SLF 14 we proudly present our first ever Saturday Night Party (in cooperation with friends MONA and Cygnet Folk Festival). 

At the festival we’ll have informative talks and hands-on workshops, cooking demonstrations, expert advice, live music, delicious food & drink stalls and art installations. We also have a number of fun kids activities lined up for our youngest festival visitors. The aim of this event is to provide inspiration and practical solutions to living sustainably and help nurture connections between individuals, organisations, ideas and the ecosystems which allow us to flourish.

So Get Connected and join us on 8th-9th November to get inspired and celebrate! 

10am - 4pm each day.

Why don't you ride down there?  Free, secure bike parking will be available, provided by Bicycle Network Tasmania.

Vote for the Council you want

Just a reminder to get your vote into the mail so that it is received before 10am on 28 October.

If you haven’t received your ballot, contact the Tasmanian Electoral Commission on 1800 801 701.

All the Hobart Aldermanic positions are being thrown open this election which reduces the quota a candidate needs to be elected, improving the chances for new blood on the Council.


Local councils are at the forefront of the issues we care about: climate change adaptation and mitigation, renewable energy and energy efficiency, sustainable transport, waste minimisation, our native plants and wildlife, transparent financial management, the arts, social equality and caring for others.

If you are interested in sustainable transport, Bicycle Tasmania has conducted a candidate survey on this topic, and their assessment is here.

Vote for people who represent your views!
