Australia Day

Next date: Monday, 26 January 2026 | 12:00 AM to 11:59 PM

Kiama Council is proud to support a range of Australia Day activities across our municipality.

Thanks to Australia Day Community Event grant funding and Kiama Council, local organisations will be hosting BBQ breakfasts for everyone to enjoy. Join the Jamberoo Red Cross and Jamberoo Rural Fire Service at Reid Park from 8.30am - 11.30am, the Gerringong Lions Club at Gerringong Bowling Club car park from 7.30am – 11.30am, or the Kiama Downs Surf Club at their clubhouse from 7am – 11am. Pack a camp chair, picnic blanket and sunscreen, and join your community for a relaxed morning of connection and conversation. There will be family friendly activities at each venue for the community to enjoy.

Council will also host the formal Australia Day Citizenship Ceremony at Gerringong Surf Club from 10am. Mayor Cameron McDonald will welcome and celebrate our newest Australian citizens in this special event. We look forward to seeing you as we come together to mark this important day.
