Thinkerbell Far Far North, one of the very first pop-up agencies in Cairns, is set to appear for all three days of the Cairns Crocodiles conference.
Cairns Crocodiles 2026 is Asia-Pacific’s number one festival uniting advertising, marketing, media and creative leadership under one roof. Set against the vibrant tropical backdrop of Cairns, the three-day event invites innovators, strategists and brand leaders to dive deep into the future of creativity and business impact.
The agency will be located at the Crystalbrook Riley, by the pool deck, with a display of pink and green and “a weird thinking man with Tinkerbell’s wings strapped to his back on a jetski”.
Lauren Inch, MD of Thinkerbell Far Far North said “We’re really excited about Thinkerbell Far Far North, and will do our best to make the agency a success.”
“However, I’m a little worried that the team are being overly ambitious thinking they will get any work done at all whilst at the Cairns Crocs. That said, if you want a nice place to hang and discuss any important brand or behaviour change issues we’re available. If you want to speak to me directly, I’ll be under a tanning umbrella with a Mimosa in hand”.

The pop up agency said it’s created “a bit of a stir with marketing’s who’s who from around the world”.
Sir Martin Sorrell, chairperson of MediaMonks said, “Thinkerbell Far Far North is the agency model of the future. All big brand and business challenges should be solved with a mimosa in hand”.
Georgia Mahaffie, CMO of One NZ said, “As a Kiwi, I’m contractually obliged to say New Zealand had the idea for a pop up agency first, but I’m sure this one will be fun anyway.”
“The pop up agency model was huge in NZ about ten years ago – glad to see Australia is finally on board”.
Paula Bloodworth co-founder of Alien Baby said “at last an agency with a JetSki in their logo – it’s what the marketing world needed but didn’t want.”
The team from Thinkerbell who will be at Cairns Crocs will include; Sam Rouse, Aislinn Powell, Luke Sikora, Oscar Kennedy, Lauren Inch, Tom Wenborn, Kath Furnari, Jaime Morgan and Adam Ferrier.
