NAIDOC Week 2026

NAIDOC Week celebrates the voices of First Nations communities. It is an opportunity for all Australians to learn about First Nations cultures and histories, and participate in celebrations of the oldest, continuous living cultures on earth.

This year’s theme, 50 Years of Deadly, marks a milestone. It’s a tribute to the people who built the NAIDOC movement and the communities who keep showing up. It is also a marker, not just of the time passed, but the momentum still building and the return to Country.
