Parkinson’s purple goes BLUE for global awareness!

On behalf of Parkinson’s Australia and the Global Alliance to End Parkinson’s Disease Association, we invite you to help us raise awareness around the #SparkTheNight initiative to illuminate 11.8 million lights for the 11.8 million people living with Parkinson’s worldwide. On April 11, annually, we want to support over 150,000 people with Parkinson’s in Australia. We believe lighting up landmarks can be a powerful symbol of solidarity and advocacy for Parkinson’s awareness. 

We encourage you to send a letter or email to your local landmarks asking they join the global Parkinson’s campaign.

We are asking landmarks across Australia to:

  • light up in Medium Blue Hex #0000CD; 0, 0, 205 RGB
  • from 6 April to 12 April 2026 during this year’s Parkinson’s Awareness Month, or if only one day can be accommodated, on World Parkinson’s Day – NIGHT  OF APRIL 11th.
  • Royal Australian Mint Spark the Night 2024
