NAIDOC Week (AU)
NAIDOC Week (AU)
NAIDOC Week is here! Every July, this week invites Australia – and beyond – to celebrate the culture, history, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. It’s not just for Indigenous communities; it’s for everyone to join in, learn something new, and appreciate the amazing contributions these cultures have made (and continue to make). Expect lots of cool events, art, and stories that make you feel more connected and excited about the richness of Australia’s heritage.
NAIDOC Week is a time to celebrate the unstoppable spirit of First Nations culture. Each year’s theme highlights an aspect of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage, often using powerful symbols like fire to represent a deep connection to the land, community, and traditions. It’s a tribute to the living heritage passed down through generations, keeping the flame of identity strong and vibrant. Visit the official NAIDOC website to explore this year’s theme and join the celebration.
