The healing power of music and the restorative power of nature are being brought together in a new initiative, the Secret Garden Inspiration Forest.
We’re delighted to announce a new partnership between Greening Australia and internationally acclaimed Norwegian-Irish music duo Secret Garden, who are returning to Australia this November for their first national tour in more than 22 years.
Greening Australia’s CEO Heather Campbell said:
“Secret Garden has inspired millions of people around the world through music that celebrates hope, resilience and human connection. Through this partnership, we’re bringing those values together with something that inspires us every day: restoring nature.”
“Together, we’ve launched the Inspiration Forest, a special initiative that recognises the power of both music and nature to heal, inspire and create lasting change.”
As part of their tour, Secret Garden are donating $1 from every ticket sold to help restore Australian landscapes impacted by bushfires and environmental degradation.
$1 from every ticket sold will be donated to help Australian landscapes.
Benny Wang, Director of Wise N Rise Pty Ltd and Australian Presenter of Secret Garden: Live in Australia 2026, said:
“For more than three decades, Secret Garden’s songs such as You Raise Me Up, Song From A Secret Garden, The Promise and Sometimes When It Rains have become the soundtrack to moments of hope and healing for people worldwide.
“Music can heal people. And in much the same way, nature has long been recognised as a source of restoration, resilience and wellbeing.
“The Inspiration Forest brings these two ideas together in a way that can create lasting impact beyond the concert hall. Every ticket plants hope.”
Alongside the environmental component, audiences are also being encouraged to reflect on the people who have supported and shaped their lives through the ‘Who Raised You Up?’ gratitude initiative.
The campaign invites people to acknowledge the parents, teachers, mentors, friends and others whose encouragement helped them grow.
The song ‘You Raise Me Up’ is the inspiration for a gratitude initiative acknowledging the people that help us grow.
“Just as people help us grow, we need healthy ecosystems for communities, wildlife and future generations to thrive,” said Heather.
“It’s a message that aligns closely with Greening Australia’s vision for healthy and productive landscapes where people and nature can thrive.”

Together, we can turn inspiration into action.
For more than three decades, Secret Garden’s music has inspired millions around the world through messages of hope, gratitude and resilience. Now, their music is helping create a lasting legacy for Australia.
The Secret Garden Inspiration Forest is using the healing power of music to help nature. As part of Secret Garden’s Australian tour, $1 from every ticket sold will support restoring habitats for Australian plants and animals through native seed collection and revegetation projects.
But the impact doesn’t need to stop there.
By donating today, you can help grow the Inspiration Forest and support us to restore more habitats and wildlife corridors across Australia, creating better connected, more resilient ecosystems.
All gifts over $2 are tax deductible. Greening Australia is an ACNC registered charity.

Why This Matters
Australia’s unique plants and animals are under increasing pressure from bushfires, floods, extreme heat and habitat loss.
But when we work together to rebuild nature – with Traditional Owners, communities, farmers, businesses and governments – something powerful happens. Birds return. Waterways are protected. Isolated fragments of habitat are connected into wildlife corridors. Over time, these systems become stronger and healthier, helping our plants and animals adapt.
Your donation will help us take practical, on-ground action, collecting native seed to plant woodland and wetland habitats at a landscape scale.
Who Raised You Up?
Secret Garden’s iconic song You Raise Me Up reminds us of the people who helped shape our lives. Perhaps it was a parent, teacher, mentor or friend. Someone who believed in you. Someone who encouraged you. Someone who helped you grow.
Just as people help us grow, healthy forests help communities, wildlife and future generations thrive. The Secret Garden Inspiration Forest is a celebration of gratitude for both. It’s a gift to the landscapes that sustain us today and for generations to come.
