Ministry of Retail is here

🎧 Ministry of Retail: Headlined by John Course at Retail Fest 2025 🎧

In 2024, Sneaky Sound System lit up the stage and set the bar high for our legendary closing concert. For 2025, we’re turning it up another notch with a night dedicated to dance music royalty. Introducing Ministry of Retail, featuring none other than John Course, the icon of Ministry of Sound and Australian dance music.

Here at Retail Fest, we believe a festival isn’t complete without incredible music, some serious dance moves, and the chance to make a difference. That’s why we’re hosting an epic closing concert to celebrate Australia’s biggest week in ecommerce and retail.

It's not just a party!

With the help and generosity of the Retail industry in Australia and the US, Retail Global has been able to give over 1 million dollars to charities over the past 17 years.

 We are excited to partner with the team at Thread Together again in 2025!

ABOUT THREAD TOGETHER

For those who have too much, to those who have too little.
Thread Together was founded in 2012, based on the simple idea to donate rather than dispose of unsold clothing.

Our founder, Andie Halas, saw the potential for unsold new clothing to be given to people in need, whilst also protecting the environment by saving these items from landfill.

Today, Thread Together clothes thousands of people across the country every week.

To achieve this, we partner with hundreds of fashion brands, a network of charities & social service agencies, and thousands of volunteers.

We are unique in that we keep clothing in circulation and we are recognised by the Fashion Industry as the most ethical solution to fashion excess.
