Dylan Alcott Foundation - Helping young Australians with disabilities

Ability Fest '24

Two mammoth shows! Thank you to all our patrons, partners, artists, crew, volunteers & staff, your contribution to the Ability Fest community is deeply valued. Together we pushed boundaries and continue to redefine what it means to create accessible, inclusive spaces where everyone can fully participate, connect, and feel empowered.

Big love from all of us at the DAF to every single legend who came to party with us across our two shows. Thanks to you, we raised $587,000 to support young people with disability to live the lives they dream & deserve.

Ability Fest

Ability Fest is proudly Australia's first inclusive and accessible music festival, having completed 5 editions in Melbourne and expanding to Brisbane in 2024. It all began from Dylan’s love of music festivals and the power they have to allow him to feel accepted whilst having an incredible time.

This day is truly like no other on the music calendar, boasting a range of accessible features and enabling individuals of all abilities to come together in a true celebration of music and togetherness.
