Ability Fest

Accessible and inclusive music festival Ability Fest is returning in 2026 to a new venue with a fresh format. 

The highlights came hard and fast for Untitled's 2023/24 festival season, which wrapped with a record-breaking 500,000-plus tickets sold.

The expanded alliance sees the live entertainment companies collaborate on presenting international artists at dates around Australia and NZ.

TIO caught up with Filippo Palermo for a glimpse at the tricky road through the pandemic, and the path ahead.

Dylan Alcott, the athlete, raconteur and music festival organiser who turned disability into a super power, is named Australian of the Year.

Ability Fest was fitted out with elevated viewing platforms, rubber surfaces and ramps for wheelchairs.
