This year, SCIP is once again celebrating Loud Shirt Day a little bit differently! The Hearing House has teamed up with First Voice member centres across Australia, and they will be coordinating the event this year.

Everything you love about Loud Shirt Day stays the same. Mark your calendar for Friday 16 October 2026 and get ready to wear your boldest, brightest outfit in support of people with hearing differences.

It’s a day to celebrate sound, raise awareness, and help fund life-changing services delivered by the Southern Cochlear Implant Programme, The Hearing House, and our Australian partners. This year’s event brings a vibrant trans-Tasman twist—uniting communities through colour, connection, and shared purpose.
