Founded in 2000, the IdeaFestival (IF) is a world-class event that attracts leading and highly diverse thinkers from across the nation and around the globe to explore and celebrate innovation, imagination and cutting-edge ideas.

The IdeaFestival is a unique non-linear program designed to stretch people's horizon's and promote breakthrough thinking. It uses multiple venues to showcase, discuss and connect important ideas in science, the arts, design, business, film, technology and education.

The Festival is designed to appeal to a broad cross-section of people - with presenters selected for their ideas, achievements, and their ability to communicate to a wide audience.

An important value of the IF is its accessibility. Strong support from sponsors allows the event to be priced at a level that permits participation by a large and diverse audience, including students and young people.
