Next date: Wednesday, 02 December 2026 | 10:00 AM to 11:00 PM
In 2026, Alter State explores the theme Regeneration: Building Deaf and Disabled Futures. Regeneration is what comes after disruption. Not a return to how things were, but the slow, deliberate work of tending new ground. It's a theme that invites collaboration over combat. Instead of pushing against old systems, you re-imagine what can be built in its place. This idea of regeneration runs deeper than metaphor. It's about the practical, patient work of care passed between generations. The small acts of tending that make a future possible long before anyone can see it taking shape. It's also about recognising where you are in a longer cycle. After a period of disruption, growth doesn't simply resume where it left off. It reorganises. New shapes emerge. The task now is to nurture those first green shoots and to imagine, together, what the next version of the sector could look like. Experience the Alter State 2026 program across Melbourne. Program, tickets and access information for Alter State 2026 available now on the event website. The line-up for Housewarming is spectacular and it's free. Seats are limited, book now.
