Join us in North Sydney for the Gai-mariagal Festival 2025, a powerful celebration of First Nations culture, creativity, and connection. Running from 26 May to 13 July, the Festival offers a free and inclusive program of events designed to engage, educate and inspire our local community.

This year’s theme, Legacies for Future Generations, reflects the enduring knowledge, resilience and artistic expression passed down through Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.

From thought-provoking films to hands-on workshops and family-friendly activities, the program invites all ages to listen, learn and connect.
