The official Australia Day NSW 2019 program was launched this week in an iconic setting beside the Sydney Harbour Bridge by NSW Minister for Multiculturalism Ray Williams, and Australia Day Council NSW Creative Director John Foreman OAM.
“This year’s Australia Day program will champion the vibrant and diverse state of NSW, based on the theme ‘Everyone, every story’, with a range of events across the state inviting people to unite, reflect and share what it means to be Australian,” Mr Williams said.
Yothu Yindi and The Treaty Project and Kate Ceberano were announced as part of a star-studded and action-packed program of events.
Australia Day in Sydney begins at sunrise with the WulgulOra Indigenous Morning Ceremony at Barangaroo Reserve with Christine Anu and her daughter singing Kulba Yaday, as Aboriginal and Australian flags are raised on Sydney Harbour Bridge.
The rest of the exciting program includes the 2019 Australia Day address by renowned social researcher and author Hugh Mackay AO, a free morning Wiggles concert at Darling Harbour’s Summer Playground, and the Sydney Harbour program supported by P&O Cruises, including the iconic Ferrython, Tug & Yacht Ballet and a 21-gun Salute to Australia.
The finale of the unforgettable day is Australia Day Live where some of the country’s top artists will perform, along with amazing fireworks.
Free tickets are available for The Wiggles and Australia Day Live via australiaday.com.au until booked out – hurry as tickets go quickly. Both events are supported by the NSW Government via its tourism and major events agency Destination NSW.
