- The official event date is typically in late May, with many hosts choosing to run their morning teas throughout May or June. In 2025, the main event date was Thursday, May 22, but communities and workplaces were encouraged to host on dates that fit them best.[1][3][4]
- The event remains one of Australia’s largest fundraising activities for cancer research and support services, bringing together thousands of hosts and participants nationwide.[2][1]

In recent years, partners and supporters (such as Dilmah Tea from 2025) have joined to boost fundraising efforts and awareness for cancer-related programs.[3]
