Australia’s Largest Fair Trade Festival Back and Better than Ever

Melbourne based organization, Moral Fairground, is running its seventh annual Fair@Square festival in early December. Designed by Melbourne banker, Susanna Bevilacqua, the purpose is to promote Fair Trade, conscious consumerism and corporate social responsibility.

“I am excited to announce that Fair@Square is back and better than ever in 2015. With the help of our sponsors, our volunteers have worked tirelessly to conceptualise and deliver a program like no other. There will be live cooking demonstrations, fashion shows, seminars, live music, art exhibition, delicious multicultural food, documentary screenings, activities for the kids and ethical markets just in time for Christmas.”

Bevilacqua continued, “The thing I’m most excited about is screening Dukale’s Dream, a feature length documentary about Hugh Jackman’s life changing experience after befriending an Ethiopian coffee farmer. After spending time on Dukale’s farm, Hugh realized that something as simple as a cup of coffee could have a profound impact on global coffee.”

Ethical businesses Fairtrade Australia and New Zealand, LUSH Australia, Australian Ethical and Ecostore are proud supporters of the event.

The Fair@Square festival will be held at Federation Square on December 5-6, 2015.
