What’s Brewing In The Ocean
You’re invited to Coolum & North Shore Coast Cares upcoming science talk series at Blackflag Brewing in Coolum on Wednesday 30th July from 5:30pm – 8:30pm.
After the success of our first What’s Brewing Event, we are ready to hold our second entitled “What’s Brewing in the Ocean”.
This is a free, all-ages event that brings together local marine researchers to share the latest insights into some of our region’s most iconic marine life: sharks, dolphins and whales.
Registration is essential – please register via the link here: What’s Brewing Tickets
(As tickets are limited, we kindly ask that you only reserve a spot if you’re planning to attend.

Drinks will be available to purchase at the bar, and pizza will also be available to purchase on the night.
A little about our speakers for the evening:

We’d love to see you there for a great evening of science, stories and community connection. This event is the second in a series and is proudly supported by the Queensland Government—Engaging Science Grants.
