Leesa Cooke (Cairns) will be guest instrumentalist, performing on the clarinet in the massed ringing piece, "Realms of Glory".
Kevinwood Bells (Sydney) will be hosting a workshop that will explore and play with the sounds of Australian fauna in song, based on the book by Patricia Beaton.

In June 2024, the beloved music quiz show Spicks and Specks made its season return to the small screen. In episode three, HSA handbells make a cameo appearance in the segment 'Counting the Beat'. You can watch the episode on ABC iView.
