Lift Off! Children and Young People’s Festival
Each autumn school holidays, Lift Off! transforms TMAG’s waterfront cultural precinct in Nipaluna/Hobart into a vibrant hub of creativity and learning. This multi-day festival offers engaging activities, performances, and workshops—mostly free and family-friendly—attracting thousands of visitors.
Designed with young people at its heart, Lift Off! empowers children to explore new ideas through hands-on experiences and inspiring presentations.
