An Annual Celebration of Climate Science
& Activism through Music.
Multiverse’s annual Climate Hope Concert interweaves music and science to tell immersive stories of regeneration: projects working to heal not just our atmosphere, but our biosphere and society as a whole.
Over the course of the show, musicians and scientists connect diverse threads together, exploring topics from sustainable polymers, coral reef restoration, urban regeneration projects and the regeneration of space, as a unifying source of wonder for our precious island earth.
