Undercover Artist Festival returns in 2025 and presents its fifth biennial Festival, with a bold and brilliant program, ready to Push it! – Pushing boundaries, pushing buttons, and pushing for change.
Undercover Artist Festival isn’t just another festival – it’s a movement.
Proudly supported by AbiliTV, Trending Media Australia
We know that sharing art online is an important part of making the arts accessible – and we want everyone in our community to have access to incredible disability-led art. We also know that live streaming is unpredictable, so we’ve got the next best thing!
In 2025, we are celebrating 10 years of outstanding performing arts by disabled and d/Deaf artists.
Since 2015, we have engaged over 600 artists and artsworkers. The 2025 Festival will honour the history of the past and push forward to the future.
With the support of Festival Partners, Queensland Theatre, Brisbane Festival and AbiliTV, Undercover Artist Festival 2025 is sure to be thrilling, invigorating and unforgettable!
We are seeking incredible like-minded individuals looking to gain experience in the performing arts sector across a range of volunteer roles, such as production, front of house, administration, and event logistics.
If you love to help people and are keen to be a warm, friendly face for Undercover Artist Festival, we would love to hear from you!
Volunteer applications are now open
