🌟 Get Ready for a Deadly Night! 🌟
2025 marks the very first Newcastle NAIDOC Awards – a powerful new celebration created by mob, for mob, right here on Awabakal Country! 👣💛🖤❤️
Born from a deadly partnership between community leaders and local organisations, this event is all about honouring the excellence, resilience, brilliance, and heart that shines through our people every day.
With over 19,000 Aboriginal people living across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie—and even more throughout Port Stephens and the Hunter—our region is rich with stories that deserve the spotlight.
🌿 This is our time to uplift, recognise and celebrate our own.
From grassroots legends to cultural leaders, artists, educators and unsung heroes—this is where we show love and pride for our people. ✊🏽
🎉 Join us as we make history with the inaugural Newcastle NAIDOC Awards – where community excellence takes centre stage.
