MESSAGE FROM THE LORD MAYOR OF MELBOURNE
Melbourne takes sustainability seriously and we invite the whole community to help tackle waste. That’s why the Zero Waste Festival is so welcome every year.
The one-day festival offers fun and interactive ways to reduce waste and consumption. From a clothes swap to a repair cafe, or ditching single use plastics through to learning about bees as pollinators and beyond – discover more about sustainability through the great activities. The City of Melbourne is proud to support the Zero Waste Festival. This is community at its best, and we hope to see you at Fed Square for a terrific free family day out.
The Zero Waste Festival 2025 is organised by Zero Waste Victoria in collaboration with event partners City of Melbourne and Fed Square. We are grateful for the support of our sponsors.
