Darwin Festival was the ultimate city-wide adventure, with over 110 events across 50 venues to explore. Like all great adventures, this festival was full of surprises. We left the map behind, we looked up, and we took flight. Our curiosity was ignited; our imaginations soared. Our hearts filled up, our minds expanded, and our feet were sore from dancing.
What we love most about Darwin Festival is it’s an invitation to come together, to connect, to celebrate. It reminds us of the joy of being with friends and strangers alike, sharing moments where artists take your breath away, where dancing, laughter, and feasting together on art, culture and food create unforgettable memories.
This festival is only possible because of our incredible partners, donors and supporters. With your help, Darwin Festival continues to deepen social and community connection, celebrate our unique environment and Territory lifestyle, and shine as a major cultural event that draws visitors to the Northern Territory from across the country. Our heartfelt thanks go to the Northern Territory Government, Northern Territory Major Events, City of Darwin, our Major Partners, and all our corporate, venue, foundation partners, donors and supporters.
We also want to pay particular thanks to the people that make up this festival – our dedicated Board, the amazing staff and a wonderful team of volunteers. The engine room behind the festival is full of incredible people who work tirelessly to create a great experience for all.
What makes this festival so special is the audiences who love this festival – it is made for the people of the Northern Territory and the many visitors that come to experience the beauty of the Top End in August, and the artists who create the magic.
We hope you had an awe-filled August!

MAGICAL MOMENTS
Darwin was the star of this year’s Festival. The city became our canvas, showcasing the beauty of the harbour, the sunsets, our parks, gardens and unique venues. It was Darwin’s time to shine!
The Festival adventure began in the stunning Festival Park, as we once again transformed Civic Park into an oasis of art, culture, food, and festival fun. This was your meeting place, your moment to relax, your chance to fill up on incredible food, to soak up the festival vibes, and discover shows that lifted spirits and left audiences in awe.
In the heart of the park is INPEX Sunset Stage where for 18 nights audiences experienced over 40 heart-stopping, laugh-inducing, mind-blowing performances from cabaret, circus, comedy, music, family shows and more. Highlights ranged from magic sensation Suhani Shah and the soul-stirring sounds of Emma Donovan to sell-out comedy from Dave Hughes, Rhys Nicholson and Mel Bracewell, with Friday and Saturday music line-ups that had everyone up and dancing.
The journey stretched well beyond Festival Park. At Fort Hill Parklands on opening weekend, the harbour views and breathtaking sunsets were matched by unforgettable performances from Guy Sebastian, L.A.B, Andrew Gurruwiwi Band and more. In Palmerston, Goyder Square came alive with music, food, circus and dance during the middle weekend.
Darwin’s theatres transported audiences into other worlds at the AANT Centre (formerly Darwin Entertainment Centre) and Brown’s Mart, while galleries across the city offered captivating exhibitions and cultural immersion.
We joined a comedy bus tour, cruised the harbour with a festival twist, enjoyed a wine tasting led by an expert ‘Idiot’ at Mindil Beach Casino Resort, and wandered through the CBD and Darwin Waterfront, exploring the city’s best bars.
The adventure drew to a close as the sun set over the Arafura Sea. Across four unforgettable nights at the Darwin Ski Club, audiences celebrated with Anthony Callea & Tim Campbell, John Schumann, Sarah Blasko, Melbourne Ska Orchestra and many more, finishing another Festival against one of the world’s most spectacular backdrops.
“It’s great to make the most of a beautiful time in Darwin, by emphasising the importance of culture, and enjoying the temperate climate with outdoor events. Like Darwin itself, the festival reflects a unique perspective.”
Darwin Festival 2025 Attendee
“I always encourage friends and colleagues to check out what Darwin Festival has on offer. Love the outdoor entertainment and I think the Ski Club is the best for those tropical sunsets.”

TERRITORY STORIES
At the heart of the Festival are our Territory artists and we’re thrilled that more than half of the artists in this year’s program are from the NT.
Audiences were captivated by A Night of Rock and Roll with Bogan Villea by Ben Graetz and a star-studded Darwin line-up, unleashing their inner rock gods in a foot-stomping, air guitar shredding, electrifying spectacle.
Beneath the spirit-filled Milkwood trees on The Esplanade, festivalgoers experienced a new show from Tracks Dance, Antidote: A Remedy for Now, celebrating the unique spirit of Darwin and its people.
Created over five years between India and Australia, acclaimed filmmaker and video artist Naina Sen enveloped us in the vivid world of সুন্দরী / SHUNDORI, her large-scale conceptual video works.
Profound beauty and ceremonial knowledge unfolded in Crown and Country, while No Place Like Home invited audiences on a journey home with Charlie King and Lisa Pellegrino hosting a powerful night of live-music and storytelling. Shalom Kaa filled our hearts up with the homecoming performance of Purple Plastic Maori
Darwin Symphony Orchestra premiered Wuyal’s Journey, a collaboration between Banula Marika and Netanela Mizrahi. Arafura Music Collective invited us to embrace life’s transient moments in The Bridge of Dreams; and Whistling Kite New Music
presented Home amidst the natural beauty of the Botanic Gardens; and Dalba Galwa – written by Dr Aunty Bilawara Lee and Netanela Mizrahi, welcomed audiences to listen and learn the sounds of Larrakia language.
The Northern Territory is home to an incredibly diverse and vibrant music culture, and we were swept up in the infectious energy of Mulga Bore Hard Rock at The Rails; as well as the joyful celebration of shared connections and culture in Meganesia. Every night of the Festival, audiences got their free live music fix at the Darwin Port Bandstand, soaking up the spirit of the Top End.

COMMUNITY CONNECT
Darwin Festival is for everyone. This year’s program was full of free events, family shows and accessible experiences, ensuring that everyone in the community could find their magical festival moment.
The family program continues to expand and reach more young audiences than ever before. Each weekend, Festival Park and INPEX Sunset Stage was your place for a fun-filled festival experience for the whole family. Trumpet Flowers in Kolsen Twilight Playground was enjoyed by the young and young at heart in a vivid, interactive world of light and sound. The food, free music, and interactive roving acts made Festival Park the place to meet up with friends and family. From baby discos to movie singalongs, hearing songs in language, and children’s choirs, families were enthralled and entertained.
The Esplanade once again came to life in City of Darwin Teddy Bears’ Picnic bursting with fun. Children dressed up as their favourite animals and explored giant inflatable habitats in Nylon Zoo, they got silly at the Little Ravers Disco, and fulfilled creative tasks in Task Party.
Family Fiesta at Goyder Square in Palmerston was a huge night of entertainment, fun, food and more. From the infectious sounds of La Descarga to the explosive moves of M3 Dance and the playful chaos of Top End Clown Troupe there was plenty for everyone to enjoy.
Schools and families were in awe of the thrilling circus spectacle of How the Birds Got Their Colours and the beautiful narration by Yugambeh Elder Luther Cora bringing this Dreamtime story to life at MAGNT Amphitheatre.
A special highlight was Wonderbox where young audiences with a disability and their friends were invited to explore a magical, multisensory wonderland. With an expanded access program, Darwin Festival is committed to ensuring its program is genuinely inclusive and accessible, actively connecting with and reaching people with disability.

We are committed to investing in the arts in the NT with a range of opportunities for local artists and arts workers to connect with visiting creatives and each other. Through our Industry Connect program, we delivered 17 free workshops, masterclasses, talks, and panel discussions, designed to foster professional development and creative exchange with 200 NT artists engaging in the program.
A highlight of the program was the Review Writers Mentorship Program, presented in partnership with We Are Locals. This initiative offered emerging local writers one-on-one mentoring with esteemed arts journalist Richard Watts OAM, empowering them to refine their review writing skills during the Festival’s opening weekend.
“Experiencing the Darwin Festival through the schools’ live performances and workshops was a first-time opportunity for many of our students. They were inspired, amazed, challenged, enraptured, and fulfilled. The Darwin Festival School program is an invaluable, enriching highlight of our dance program at Nightcliff Middle School and without it, many students would never access live arts performances. “
Lisa – Teacher, Nightcliff Middle School
COMMUNITY TIX
Our Community Tix program is designed to make arts and culture accessible to everyone, offering free and subsidised tickets so more people can experience the joy of live performance. Thanks to the generous support of Power and Water, we expanded the program in 2025 to include 12 shows, distributing 780 free and low-cost tickets throughout the Festival. In addition to this, we were able to facilitate a group from Clontarf Academy attending a performance of The Mixed-Race Tape followed by an engaging Q&A with the artist. We also hosted a dedicated session of Crown & Country for Purple House.
“Thanks so much to the Darwin Festival for giving young people impacted by cancer and their families an opportunity to experience the arts! The arts entertains us, but also connect us, hold us, and offers us hope. And the show, Duck Pond, did just that for Canteen’s young people and families. Thank you!”
Felix – Program Officer, Canteen
ACCESSIBILITY
This year we enhanced our accessibility offerings, with five Auslan Interpreted performances, three Sensory Friendly shows and one Audio Described performance. Thanks to support from the City of Darwin, we introduced Sensory Calming Spaces at the INPEX Sunset Stage during family shows, providing quiet areas for anyone needing a moment to re-focus or decompress.
We also launched the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Program, allowing individuals with non-visible disabilities to discreetly signal they may need extra support. Our staff embraced the initiative, which will continue in future festivals.
To further improve access, we developed Access Guides for key venues and performances, offering helpful information for those who need it.
Our Access Program was proudly supported by Randazzo Properties.

2025 SEASONAL CAMPAIGN IDENTITY
Continuing our trusted collaboration with our long-standing brand strategy partner, KWP + Partners, we evolved the Festival’s seasonal campaign identity, unveiling a bold refresh of the visual identity for 2025. This year we introduced a vibrant teal hero colour, plus the iconic yellow Kapok flower and festoon lights as dynamic new design elements. The rejuvenated look infused fresh energy into our campaign while maintaining clear visual continuity with previous years, resulting in an identity that feels both revitalised and cohesive. This creative renewal set the tone for a lively, memorable season and demonstrates Darwin Festival’s enduring commitment to innovation, community spirit, and the celebration of all that makes our region unique.

FESTIVAL FOOTPRINT:
PARTNERING TO ACTIVATE DARWIN
This year, our footprint highlighted vibrant activations across Darwin and its surrounding areas, made possible through the support of our dedicated partners. Our local government partner, City of Darwin, played a key role in transforming Civic Square into our free festival hub, welcoming over 60,000 people to enjoy live music and entertainment on the Darwin Port Bandstand, family fun at the Kolsen Twilight Playground installation Trumpet Flowers, and delicious offerings from NT food vendors. Festival Park featured our main INPEX Sunset Stage, where audiences experienced performances from some of the best local and interstate talent.
