Overview
Another year has rolled by too quickly and with Halloween creeping around the corner, along with it comes one of Brisbane’s favourite traditions: The Zombie Walk.
Just in case you somehow missed it last year, Zombie Walk is an organised public march of people dressed up in costumes to raise money for the Brain Foundation. It’s freaky and for a good cause! Looking like they just stepped off the set of Shaun of the Dead, the swarm of zombies drag their limbs around the city in a somewhat orderly fashion before finishing up at Centenary Place then doing the Thriller dance to the official after party. This year the aim is set a world record for the largest gathering of zombies, so if you are attending please register your details online here and be part of zombie history.
Although it's free to join in the festivities, you can get a group together and raise money here. Think of it like a fun run with a twist! The top zombie team - Pickled Brains - has so far raised $4696 and the total fundraising isn’t far off reaching their goal of $10, 000.
Everyone can do their bit to help. If you’re not into ripping up your clothing and covering your body in fake blood, why not be a stylish zombie representing local fashion in one of Lauren Carney’s ‘I like your brain’ tees? There is a limited edition of fifty made, with fifty per cent of all profits donated to the Brain Foundation.
There are plenty of ways to show your support this Zombie Walk. Great minds taste alike.
