This week is National NAIDOC Week (5–12 July 2026), celebrating 50 years of recognising the voices, cultures, histories and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

This year's theme, "50 Years of Deadly," honours the Elders, organisers, artists and communities whose strength, leadership and resilience have shaped the NAIDOC movement over the past five decades. It reminds us that NAIDOC Week is not only a celebration, but an opportunity for all Australians to learn, reflect and recognise the enduring contributions of First Nations peoples.

Discover National NAIDOC Week 2026 events and explore how you and your Group can get involved in celebrating this important milestone.
