Everyone is welcome
We’re committed to making Illuminate Raymond Terrace an event that welcomes and includes our whole community. Our social story provides a step-by-step guide to the festival experience, designed to help individuals with sensory sensitivities or those who would benefit from knowing what to expect.
We are also offering:
- A pre-event walkthrough at 2pm for anyone who would benefit from exploring the space in a quieter setting before the event begins.
- A safe space to relax in our inclusion tent.
- Sensory experiences of all kinds - hear, touch and see!
This event is made possible thanks to funding from the NSW Government and our partners, The Mutual Bank.
