Who we are
Inspired by our love of adventure sports, the natural world and our passion to protect the planet, The Extreme Hangout was established as a climate action events platform in 2021. Our collective mission is to give young changemakers and marginalised communities a voice, popularise the climate movement, mainstream the conversation and inspire action in our day to day lives.
We launched in Glasgow at COP26, delivered alongside The New York Times at COP27 in Egypt and then in recognition of our growing movement and community, the United Nations COP28 organising committee invited us to deliver Extreme Hangout in the official COP28 Green Zone at Expo City, Dubai in 2023. To date, there have been 17 Extreme Hangout Events across Europe, Middle East, Africa, North and South America with over 900 prestigious speakers taking to our stage, delivering over 8 million video views to date. The first one in Portugal was hosted by the Municipality of Cascais October 2023 at the Casa das Historias Paula Rego in a one day event. This year Cascais welcomes us again at the Parque Palmela July 13 & 14th with panels, keynotes, workshops, entertainment, shopping, food, music, film and much more.
​
Extreme Hangout is open to all and is a place for inspiration, education, and entertainment. Our programme has leading national and international NGOs, climate champions, innovators, entrepreneurs, academics, youth, story teller and commercial partners behind it, and is in the enviable position leading the sustainability space to offer a strong brand presence, engaging content, and significant visibility for all those who engage with us.
