Bula Vinaka! Marau ena Macawa ni Vosa Vakaviti 2026!

From 4-10 October, we celebrate Vosa Vakaviti, the Fijian language, and the rich culture, traditions, and identity it carries.

This year's theme reminds us that language begins at home. By speaking Fijian with our families, sharing stories, and teaching the next generation, we help keep the language strong and thriving.

Na noqu vosa me tekivu mai vale ka me'u na vosataka e na veisiga. "My language starts at home and I need to speak it every day."

🎉 Happy Fiji Language Week 2026!
