One of the most signficant climate uprisings on the planet, the 2024 People’s Blockade & Canberra Wave will be ground breaking.

It’s a massive protest and it’s a family friendly festival, all in one. 10,000 people over 10 days ~ Stopping coal leaving the world’s largest coal port for an unprecedented 50 hours.

Why act?

Fossil fuels, like coal and gas, are the greatest drivers of this crisis. Yet, since coming to power, the Albanese Government has approved more than 13 fossil fuel projects and 117 are in the pipeline.

The science is clear: we cannot have new fossil fuel projects and ensure a safe future on this planet. We need land rights for First Nations, a plan for workers, and to break the fossil fuel CEO’s hold over our democracy.

Part 1: The People’s Blockade

VENUE: NOBBY’S BEACH, NEWCASTLE

Join thousands stopping coal exports from the world’s largest coal port for 50 hours! Workshops, speeches, kids activities, live music & floating dance parties - climate action has never been so fun!

After rolling Blockade media coverage, we‘ll ride the wave of media attention to Canberra. At Parliament House we’ll demand the PM answer: “When will you stop new coal and gas?” in a peaceful, fun occupation.
