Back by popular demand, you’re invited to the 2024 World Refugee Festival.

The event is a free day of celebration, featuring:

  • refugee performers from around the world
  • music and dance
  • food stalls from diverse cuisines
  • youth and children space
  • opportunities to meet and learn about the work of organisations that resettle and support refugees, and much more!

The event is an opportunity to celebrate the strength, resilience, and determination of those who were forced to flee their homeland and encountered all kinds of persecutions. We acknowledge and celebrate their incredible contribution today in their new land, Australia.

Part of World Refugee Week, the event honours the courage of refugees around the world.
