2024 is a special milestone for LG Electronics in Australia and New Zealand, raising a glass to 30 incredible years of innovation, happy customers and serious growth. From humble beginnings as Lucky Goldstar back in 1994, LG Electronics Australia and New Zealand has come a long way, now established as a global consumer technology powerhouse, all thanks to the amazing support of customers and staff. From 24 staff members in 1994 to over 300 today, the LG Electronics Australia and New Zealand team dedication has been pivotal to the company’s growth.
Driven by innovation, LG’s 30-year journey has been packed with world-firsts and innovations across various industries. From IT products such as UltraWide and curved monitors that revolutionized the gaming industry, to the lightest laptop that made working on-the-go a breeze, and the smallest projector that turned any room into a home theater. And let’s not forget about LG TVs. LG’s leadership in OLED technology has brought breathtaking picture quality that delivers vibrant colors and perfect blacks. We’ve also been busy in the kitchen with the InstaView fridges that let you peek inside without opening the door, while UVnano technology brings a whole new level of hygiene to the home. And who could forget about our game changing TwinWash and WashTower designs that have made laundry day a whole lot easier.
At a celebratory event for LG employees, LG staff were brought together to reminisce about the company’s incredible 30-year journey in Australia and New Zealand. With a mission to make life better through technology, LG’s Life’s Good mantra – which originated in Australia in 1999 – perfectly captures the Aussie spirit, and the reinvigorated brand promise in “Life’s Good with Optimism,” showcases how positivity can help in embracing a brighter, more positive future.
The 30th anniversary celebration was a time to reflect on past achievements and look forward to the future with optimism. To commemorate three decades of success, LG organized a special event in Australia and New Zealand with activities designed to bring Life’s Good with Optimism amongst their employees to life. This included a video photo booth where staff could record messages and stories about what they’re feeling optimistic about. These personal reflections, focused on driving positivity among employees, were shared on social media with the hashtags #LifesGood and #OptimismYourFeed.
As a customer-focused brand, LG is a passionate champion of optimism. This celebration encouraged employees to participate in the global “Optimism your feed” social movement to infuse positivity across our social media feeds and create positive changes by being intentional with our activities both online and in the real world.
Overall, the 30th anniversary celebrations underscored LG’s dedication to fostering a culture of optimism and innovation in Australia and New Zealand, a physical example of actively bringing to life LG’s brand promise of Life’s Good.

Imagine a world where every moment is savored and each experience deeply cherished. This life of fulfillment is no longer a distant dream but a reality, thanks to LG’s bold optimism and relentless drive to innovate. The company’s goal is to shape a future where it’s easy to appreciate the smaller things in life and where Life’s Good for everyone, no matter where they live.
In line with this dedication to creating a happier, more connected future for all, LG Saudi Arabia organized its first-ever K-POP World Festival on August 3 at JAX District’s Cultural and Art zone in Riyadh. To foster cultural unity and mutual respect, LG invited the nation’s biggest K-pop enthusiasts to promote a special and vibrant cultural exchange between Saudi Arabia and South Korea.
The warehouse was packed with excited fans, who created an incredibly energetic atmosphere as each act performed. The local fan base’s devotion to the world’s fastest-growing music genre was demonstrated by the hundreds of people outside who couldn’t get inside, decked out in traditional clothes like hijabs and abayas while singing and dancing to their favorite Korean songs. The festival was a perfect picture of how K-pop has found a special place in Saudi hearts, harmonizing with the local culture.
With 30 teams from across Saudi Arabia competing in the preliminaries, the best 10 progressed to the final. After a fiercely contested final showdown, the coveted title was awarded to the Saudi female trio dance group, Everlast, who captivated the audience with a dynamic performance and their undeniable talent. This victory qualifies Everlast for the K-pop festival finals which will be held in Changwon, South Korea, in October.
The winners each received a premium LG product, such as an XBOOM speaker, CineBeam Q projector, LG InstaView Refrigerator or LG OLED Posé TV. These high-end prizes, which reflect LG’s dedication to recognizing top talent and promoting technological innovation, were also showcased during the festival to let attendees interact with and experience the company’s latest offerings in person.
Under the partnership of the Korean Embassy in Saudi Arabia, the Ministry of Culture of Saudi Arabia, the Saudi Entertainment Academy (SEA) and LG, this vibrant celebration of two unique cultures underscored the strengthening cultural and diplomatic relations between the two nations.
