Held from 6–13 July, this year’s theme ‘The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy’ honouring leadership, the next generation and the enduring influence of their communities and ancestors.
Across the week, Territorians took part in a range of activities including cultural displays, yarning circles, BBQs and family fun days, workshops, art exhibitions and marches drew strong community participation. Poster competitions and NAIDOC-themed school activities helped engage young people. Hospitals hosted celebrations to mark the occasion, and special events were held at parks and cultural sites, including the unveiling of a new Aboriginal art space featuring work by Lynette Fejo at the Territory Wildlife Park.
These events were more than just celebrations — they were opportunities to listen, learn, and build respect, understanding and unity.
