Date: 27 October 2025
Location: Brisbane Powerhouse - 119 Lamington St, New Farm QLD 4005
Join the Brisbane CEO CookOff
Join us at Brisbane Powerhouse, where this iconic riverside arts venue will be reimagined for one powerful night as a dynamic kitchen of compassion, connection, and culinary excellence. The OzHarvest CEO CookOff™ is lighting up Brisbane — inviting the city’s top business leaders, chefs, and changemakers to come together and serve more than just food.
Inside the walls of this industrial-chic cultural landmark, CEOs will trade strategy for service — cooking side-by-side with Queensland’s leading chefs to create and plate up a gourmet meal for those doing it tough. The result? A high-impact, deeply human evening where generosity takes the spotlight and food becomes a vehicle for dignity and hope.
The lead-up to the event is just as important — each participant commits to raising vital funds to support OzHarvest’s mission to Nourish Our Country. Then, on the night, the Powerhouse will pulse with purpose: sizzling pans, shared stories, vibrant music, and a community united around a common cause.
This isn’t just a dinner — it’s Brisbane’s most meaningful dining experience. One where every dish changes a life, and every leader becomes a force for good.
Join us at Brisbane Powerhouse and be part of a night where leadership is defined by heart, not hierarchy. It’s time to cook with purpose and lead with impact.
