About EXTREME Hangout
www.extremehangout.com
Inspired by our love of the outdoors, adventure sports and our passion to protect the planet, Extreme established The Extreme Hangout as the sustainability impact platform to give young people a voice around climate issues and drive environmental action.
Launched in 2021 The Extreme Hangout became a leading fringe event at COP26 in Glasgow. We took over a repurposed ferry on the River Clyde, created a hub and delivered 11 days of inspiring conferences and evening entertainment. Over 6000 people came to hear and be motivated by more than 200 incredible speakers from Bear Grylls to Lily Cole, all of which delivered 5 million video impressions off the live stream and video on demand service.
