Welcome to Real Ideas
We are committed to making positive social impact through our five business units: Real Immersive, Real Art Make Print, Real Pathways, and Nature and Neighbourhoods. Each of our business units has a unique focus and purpose, but they are all driven by the same core values: creativity, innovation, and social responsibility.
Step into Dazzle – a spectacular four-night light festival that marks 200 years of Devonport’s history, shining a light on its past, present, and future.
27th February – 2nd March 2025 from 5:30pm – 9:30pm
Dazzle will transform Devonport into a vibrant canvas of light, art, and creativity. With stunning projections, immersive art, and interactive activities, this free festival celebrates the area’s rich heritage, including the iconic dazzle camouflage that was first developed right here in Devonport.
