Explore signage solutions for events, activations and festivals:
The Midsumma Festival 2026 program has officially launched — and Melbourne’s Deakin Edge at Federation Square once again came alive with colour, community and creativity.
With a packed audience, dynamic performances, First Nations storytelling, and a crowd full of artists, partners and community members, the night set the tone for a vibrant festival season ahead.
Evan Evans is proud to have supplied key signage elements for the launch — helping bring the visual identity of Midsumma 2026 to life.

To support the festival’s launch and ensure branding was strong across stage, media and arrival moments, our team produced the following:
✔ Branded Lectern Banner
A custom lectern skin applied to the podium, ensuring consistent branding across speeches, introductions and stage photography.
