Learn more about FOBI

Princes Wharf 1 will be humming with around 50 exhibitors, stage shows and workshop areas.

FOBI currently runs for two days:

  • Friday 20th is “Schools Day”, only for participating schools from around Tasmania.
  • Saturday 21st is open to the public.

Both days run the same content, but during Schools Day, student groups are scheduled across selected, set activities, across time-limited sessions. So even if your child has attended during Schools Day, they may be very keen to come back on Saturday and explore the content they missed – there will still be plenty to see and do!

Festival of Bright Ideas acknowledges the palawa people as the original and traditional custodians of lutruwita/ Tasmania. We commit to working respectfully to honor the achievements of the palawa people as Tasmania's first scientists and engineers, living and working sustainably on this land.
