National Multicultural Festival
5 to 7 February 2027
Welcome to the National Multicultural Festival — Australia’s largest celebration of cultural diversity. Held on Ngunnawal Country in Canberra, this vibrant, community-led event brings people together to connect, share and celebrate.
The festival brings together food, music, dance and stories from around the world — creating a vibrant space where cultures are shared and traditions are honoured.
Across three unforgettable days, the city comes alive with performances and experiences that reflect the richness of our community. Whether you’re discovering something new or celebrating your own heritage, there’s a place for everyone.
Together, we celebrate diversity, strengthen connection, and keep culture thriving for generations to come.
