Big Stuff 2025 Conference Hub
Big Stuff 2025 was the first triennial conference event in the organisation’s history to be held across two sites – the main conference in Ghent, Belgium, and a smaller hub in Perth, WA. The theme of the conference was Skills and Machines – A Living Partnership and it was a stimulating three days of discussion and ideas exploring effective methods for passing critical and endangered knowledge to new staff and volunteers, ensuring the continuity of this important heritage. This was officially the largest Big Stuff event ever with over 200 attendees overall.
