BindiMaps has expanded our long-term partnership with Ability Fest in 2024, providing digital mapping and wayfinding to both the Melbourne and Brisbane events. And, for the first time, attendees can easily plan their journey to the event with BindiWeb embedded into both the Melbourne and Brisbane Ability Fest websites.
Ability Fest, in Melbourne on October 19 and in Brisbane on October 26, is a non-profit music festival promoting access and inclusion within the music industry and is presented by the Dylan Alcott Foundation. BindiMaps has been a partner with Ability Fest since 2022.
