Sir David Attenborough's filmmaker and righthand man Dr Chadden Hunter leads a star-studded line-up of entertainment at this year's Logan Eco Action Festival (LEAF).
Dr Hunter, a Brisbane-based wildlife biologist, will be joined in Logan by Australia's favourite scientist Dr Karl Kruszelnicki, Totally Wild host Ranger Stacey and world-famous TV characters Bluey and Bingo.
Held annually, LEAF is one of South East Queensland's largest free events dedicated to sustainability, environmental conservation, and the wonder of nature.
This family-friendly festival, on Sunday, June 1 from 9am to 3pm, brings together sustainability experts and conservationists for a day of interactive workshops, engaging talks, and hands-on activities designed to inspire and educate.
Dr Hunter has filmed everything from orcas in Antarctica to jaguars in the Amazon and he is the creative genius responsible for Planet Earth 1 and 2, Frozen Planet and most recently The Platypus Guardian.
Working extensively with natural historian Sir David for the past 20 years, Dr Hunter's inspirational talk 'Attenborough and the Environment' will explore the world of wildlife filmmaking and whether 'awe and wonder' are enough to save the planet.
Mayor Jon Raven said LEAF, held at Griffth University's Logan Campus, has a great festival atmosphere.
"As the youngest and fastest-growing city in Queensland, many Logan residents are open to innovative ideas and new ways to reduce, reuse or recycle," Mayor Raven said.
"The presentations and workshops at LEAF will help them discover ways to reduce their environmental impact and make positive changes in their home, workplace and community.
"But it wouldn't be a festival without an incredible line-up of talent where kids can get up and dance with Bluey and Bingo, and those young at heart can once again be inspired by the iconic Ranger Stacey.
"With live music, eco-friendly stalls, delicious food vendors, you can thrift to your heart's content with Logan Wardrobe Rummage and take home a free native plant."
The 2025 Logan Eco Action Festival program will be released on Our Logan in the coming weeks or visit LEAF 2025 on Facebook.
