The Central Coast’s most vibrant sustainability celebration is back!
The Sustainable Future Festival returns to The Entrance Memorial Park on Saturday 15 November, bringing together education, entertainment and environmental action in one unforgettable day.
Now in its fourth year, the festival is a feature of this year’s Lakes Festival – a 10-day celebration of our waterways and community across the Central Coast.
Central Coast Council Mayor, Lawrie McKinna said Council is proud to support the Sustainable Future Festival.
