Donate to make FODI happen in 2024

Since 2009 the Festival of Dangerous Ideas, or FODI to its fans, has curated thought-provoking topics and new approaches to wicked problems. We bring bold speakers, artists and experiences together in ways that are unexpected, and yes, sometimes a bit uncomfortable, but we are always unerringly authentic. We’ve never shied away from truth. So, here’s our dangerous truth: Festival of Dangerous Ideas needs funds to go ahead in 2024. We’re already talking to partners. We’re applying for grants. We're canvassing speakers and artists. We’re telling everyone who will listen about the 11+ festivals we’ve delivered with thought-leading speakers drawn from across the world, alongside art and activations with impact. But our festival of international significance is expensive to deliver. We keep ticket prices low so that it’s accessible. Our non-profit, independence is both an asset and a challenge. For the first time ever, we’re asking FODI fans to help keep us in the game. Your donation will go directly to helping us pay deposits to lock in the best speakers and artists from around the world for 2024. FODI could not be produced without the generosity of our supporters and donors. Our supporters are brave. They are bold. They think about the future and who want to play a role in shaping it.
