Earth Hour 2025 - Make a Candle, Make a Difference. 

Join us for a special candle-making event where you’ll craft your own candle to burn during Earth Hour 2025  

Did you know that over 4 million candle containers end up in Australian landfills every year because they can’t be recycled?

This Earth Hour, we invite you to be part of the solution. 

CandleXchange is on a mission to change that with their Return & Swap program and UpCandle initiative—offering a sustainable way to enjoy candles without the waste.

Since launching four years ago, they have already diverted 4.5 tonnes of candle container waste from landfill, with swap rates growing every year—reaching as high as 60% in their Balgowlah flagship store and 35% online!

In addition, they have donated over 2500 candles helping survivors of domestic violence light up their new homes with warmth and hope

Please ONLY Book one spot for yourself to allow the maximum number of people to participate. If you book more than one session, additional booked sessions WILL BE CANCELLED.

When: 8am - 10am Tuesday 18 March 2025, from 10:15 - 11am we may have walk-ins spots available while stocks last.

Where: Tower Three South Lobby

** Bookings will open on Tuesday 11th March via Amica Events **

BOOK VIA AMICA EVENTS

Plus, bring back any used CandleXchange containers to swap for a new one with 30% discount, or donate clean, reusable candle containers from any brand. These donated containers will be refilled and gifted to survivors of domestic violence through our UpCandle program.

Let’s take action together—reducing waste, reusing materials, and lighting up Earth Hour with candles that protect the planet and support the community. We can’t wait to see you there!
