Darwin is a thriving cosmopolitan town. As well as hosting one of Australia’s most vibrant indigenous cultures, our population is comprised of over 100 nationalities. Darwin is also a very young city, having been almost totally rebuilt after the devastation of Cyclone Tracy in 1974, and this is reflected in the age of its population, the median age of which is 30, 5 years younger than the national median age of 35. This youthful spirit, is reflected in its easygoing, laid back lifestyle and enthusiasm for fun and leisure activities.
The Darwin Festival is recognised locally, nationally and internationally as the premier festival for the ‘Top End’ of Australia and the Asia Pacific Region., and for its quality, diversity and innovation in arts programming and presentation.
Our mission is to profile the Northern Territory as a cultural destination of choice through contributing to the artistic, cultural and economic development of the Top End, whilst offering opportunities to showcase and interpret the cultural and artistic diversity of the region.
