It’s time to get ready for Tubbalunganer EXPOSÉ Climbing Festival at Mount Buffalo in 2026. Tie in Night is part of our warm up series across NSW and VIC.

Hosted by Ange from RAWQ this relaxed in store session is for anyone who wants to learn more about Tubbalunganer EXPOSÉ. You will hear about the meaning behind the festival and its significance for the Australian climbing calendar. We will also take a look at the planning stages and moving parts behind EXPOSÉ and what it really takes to bring a community event like this to life.

In support, Arc’teryx Ambassador Ivy He will lead a session on what it takes to build spaces that truly welcome more people into climbing. She will share her own journey in the sport, the challenges many face when stepping into outdoor culture, and the simple actions that help uplift marginalised communities. To close the night, Ange will run us through some basic but essential knots and rope skills used in climbing.

You will learn how to flake and coil a rope cleanly, tie in with a solid figure 8 and do all your pre-climb checks. Light refreshments and snacks will be available throughout the evening so you can settle in and meet a few new faces from your community.
