NAIDOC week 2026

50 Years of Deadly

For five decades, NAIDOC Week has celebrated the voices of our communities — steady, unapologetic, and proud. Each year, its themes have called for truth, celebrated culture, honoured resistance, and reminded the nation of who we are.

Fifty Years of Deadly marks a milestone. It’s a tribute to the people who built this movement. the Elders who stood firm, the organisers who made space, the artists who turned resistance into expression, and the communities who keep showing up, year after year.

What's on this NAIDOC week?

Event listings coming soon.

Council is a proud partner of the Local Government Regional NAIDOC Awards 2026, hosted by City of Wollongong City Council on 18 July.
