The Launceston Alive Steering Committee has POSTPONED, NOT CANCELLED, the 2020 Easter Festival in light of the emerging COVID-19 epidemic. We are increasingly aware that there is now a moral obligation to participate in community-wide efforts to reduce and delay COVID-19 transmission. The Date we have chosen for the postponed festival is the first weekend of Spring, ie 2nd – 5th of September. While we will continue with our theme for this year 2020 Crystal Clear Vision we have chosen a new name for this early Spring event, namely SPRING TO LIFE. Of course, we will be safety-checking our new plan as the time approaches

May God bless and protect all residents and visitors to NE Tasmania this autumn and winter.

We look forward to being together in Spring

With care from all at Launceston Alive 

 

This beautiful diverse city is nestled at the apex of a spectacular and productive valley, where North and South Esk rivers unite to form the Tamar. Surrounded by prime agricultural land and not far from spectacular mountains and picturesque beaches, it is not easy to find a place on Earth which compares. 

Historically and culturally rich, Launceston has developed into a thriving cosmopolitan kaleidoscope of opportunity – a place from which many prominent Australians have innovatively and compassionately served our nation and world. 

Launceston Alive has crystalised some of the DNA which makes our city and region so special – cohesive cooperation – relevant engagement – commemoration & celebration – the central place of Easter in all aspects of modern life – and the transformation which comes when truth and hope are held high.  Welcome to our website and to the unique aliveness that is growing among us.
