FightMND will turn the Gabba blue with our iconic Big Freeze Beanies to beat the Beast that is motor neurone disease (MND). We go again.

Event Details
Join us as the Brisbane Lions take on GWS Giants, and make a difference in the lives of people living with MND.
Investing in research continues to be our best weapon against the Beast, but it’s expensive and takes time.

Local celebrities will take the icy plunge, all in the hopes to raise awareness and vital funds for MND Research and Care.
Date: Saturday 14 June 2025
Fixture: Brisbane Lions vs. GWS Giants
Where: The Gabba

Illuminations: Turning Queensland blue for Big Freeze
FightMND’s annual Illuminations campaign shines a light on the thousands of Australian living with MND.
It offers a moment to reflect and remember those who have passed, those who are currently battling the Beast, and all those who care for or have cared for a loved one with MND.

Volunteer for the QLD Freeze
Are you ready to take action, give back, and make an impact? We need passionate volunteers to be part of this incredible event!
Before the game, volunteers will be positioned throughout the stadium, selling Beanies and collecting donations.
Each Beanie sold and every donation moves us closer to finding a cure. So stand with FightMND during the QLD Freeze and live it forward for those who can’t!
