Creative Harvest 2027 Subscribe and Win: Terms and Conditions

​Last updated 7 October 2026

1. The promoter

The promoter is the Baw Baw Sustainability Network (BBSN), ABN 58 561 087 393, a volunteer-run charity registered with the ACNC. BBSN runs Creative Harvest.

2. Who can enter

• The competition is open to residents of Victoria, Australia, aged 18 and over, who are existing or new subscribers to the Creative Harvest newsletter.

• Members of the BBSN committee and the Creative Harvest committee, and their immediate families, can't win a prize. They may stay subscribed to the newsletter.

• If one of them is drawn, that draw is void and a new winner is drawn straight away, at the same time and place.

• The winner's age and Victorian residency will be confirmed before the prize is awarded.

3. Competition period

The competition opens on Sunday 4 October 2026 and closes at 12.30pm on Sunday 24 January 2027, during the festival weekend. All times in these terms are Victorian time (AEDT).

4. How to enter

Entry is free.

• New subscribers. Subscribe to the Creative Harvest newsletter during the competition period, by scanning the QR code on a Creative Harvest poster, banner, flyer or competition board, including at the garden entrances during the festival weekend, or at www.creativeharvest.org.au. Each new subscriber receives 1 entry.

• Existing subscribers. Everyone subscribed before 4 October 2026 is entered automatically, with 1 entry each.

• You must still be subscribed when the competition closes. Unsubscribing before the close removes your entries from the draw.

• Entries are counted per email address. Subscribing more than once with the same address does not add entries.

5. Bonus entry for ticket buyers

Subscribers receive 1 bonus entry for every Creative Harvest 2027 festival ticket or workshop order placed by 11.59pm on Thursday 31 December 2026.

• Bonus entries apply to both existing and new subscribers.

• Festival ticket orders and workshop bookings both count.

• Bonus entries are counted per order, not per ticket. An order for a family pass earns 1 bonus entry, the same as an order for a single pass.

• The email address used to place the order must match the email address you subscribed with.

• Tickets go on sale on 1 November 2026, at their normal price. There is no extra cost for bonus entries.

6. The prize

One winner receives a prize pack valued at $904.95, plus a Creative Harvest weekend pass. The weekend pass value will be added here when ticket prices are released on 1 November 2026.
