A magical oasis of arts, culture and culinary delights!
Step into Festival Park, the beating heart of Darwin Festival 2025, where a world of wonder awaits. This vibrant hub transforms Civic Park into an enchanting playground of artistic adventure where everyone is invited.
Be captivated by the mesmerising Trumpet Flowers in the Kolsen Twilight Playground. This stunning installation by world-renowned Amigo & Amigo studio creates an interactive musical garden, blending light and sound in a spectacle you won’t want to miss.
Every night, the park comes alive with free entertainment showcasing the best of NT musicians and bands on the Darwin Port Bandstand, alongside captivating roving acts. Feast your eyes on new artworks by Larrakia artists Jason and Trent Lee adorning the INPEX Sunset Stage wall and Techy Masero’s innovative bamboo designs.
Indulge your senses at our curated selection of local food vendors, offering a mouthwatering journey through the Territory’s culinary landscape. From quick bites to leisurely feasts, every dish tells a story of our community’s passion and creativity. This year, we’re raising a glass to our new partner, Alice Springs Brewing Co, whose exceptional Territory-crafted beers add a refreshing twist to your Festival experience.
INPEX Sunset Stage is where you can experience some of the best music, family, comedy, magic and cabaret acts, all performed in the beautiful outdoor venue that comes alive each night of the Festival.
