Getting here

Getting to Darwin is an easy three to four hour flight from most Australian capital cities.

Once you’ve had your fill of the Top End (believe us, you may never want to leave!), consider flying home or onto your next adventure with Airnorth – the Official Airline Partner of Darwin Festival.
