StrataWeek

Nov 04–11 2027

Port Meridian / Edition 04

Eight days, one city, every layer. A fictional festival where a harbour city opens every layer of itself.

What it is

Strata Week is eight days in which a harbour city opens every layer of itself: the grids under the streets, the machines on the piers, the money behind the ideas, and the people who turn up to argue about all of it.

When
Nov 04–11 2027
Where
Port Meridian, five districts
Format
One flagship day, seven days of walks, studios and suppers
