Creator Summit: Powered by Fujifilm
Following a sold-out Sydney edition, this hands-on photography festival is headed to Melbourne, jam-packed with lens-based creative encounters.
Overview
Whether you've got aspirations to become a social media star or simply want to level up your creativity behind the camera, Creator Summit: Powered by Fujifilm has got you covered. Taking over The Timber Yard in Port Melbourne on Saturday, May 9, 2026, this leading creator and photography festival presents a curated program of creative experiences, featuring hands-on encounters for both camera-curious creators and seasoned professionals.
Featuring 20 talks, workshops and panels, 15 leading creators will guide myriad experiences. These include 'Hit Record Live', an interactive session where guests take control of the camera to capture a live music video, complete with a band, lights and on-the-spot direction. Plus, the panel discussion 'You're a Content Creator, Now What?' will delve into finding purpose, rather than endless scrolling, while 'Turning Missteps into Creative Breakthroughs' guides attendees on transforming mistakes into momentum-building lessons.
"Everything we do at Fujifilm Australia is centred around our community," says Fujifilm General Manager Shaun Mah. "The response we received following the inaugural Creator Summit earlier this year was beyond anything we could have imagined, so we knew we had to bring it back for year two and Melbourne, with its vibrant creative culture, is the perfect next chapter."
With everyone's favourite visual discovery platform, Pinterest, joining the lineup, there's also the chance to get up to speed on the latest content creation tech. Fujifilm will invite guests to get their hands on the latest Fujifilm X Series, GFX Series, and FUJINON gear. At the same time, a dedicated partner hub will feature interactive demos and workshops from leading creative brands like ALPAKA, BenQ, Adobe and Leofoto.
