Inspiration Stations are truly the bread and butter of our festival, it’s what makes us unique!

Through the Inspiration Station activities, we want kids to learn through a form of play, but we also want young people to see the leaders in these centres as role models, and think about future career possibilities. Each year we have over 20 Inspiration Stations hosted by local businesses, community groups and more.
