2006 Twins Plus Festival
2006 Twins Plus Festival a big hit
The Australian Twin Registry, in conjunction with the Australian Multiple Birth Association (AMBA), hosted Australia's first national festival for twins, triplets, quadruplets, quintuplets and their families on Saturday 11th March 2006 at Thoroughbred Park, Canberra.
The Festival was an opportunity for families with young twins and multiples, and for adult twins also, to get together and celebrate. It was also an opportunity for the ATR and many research groups to staff exhibitions and engage with the twins, highlighting areas of their research and showing their appreciation for the massive contribution Australian twins have made to research. The 1,500 twins, higher order multiples and their families who attended were aged from a few months old to over 90 and came from all over the country. They were entertained by a variety of performers and participated in a range of activities.
