NOTE: This event is only for Australian Defence Force families

In celebration of NAIDOC week 2022 ADF members and families are invited to join us for an Aboriginal cultural tour at Barangaroo. Led by a team of cultural educators, Barangaroo’s program of authentic Aboriginal Cultural Tours explore the site’s rich Aboriginal history and cultural significance. You will connect with the world’s oldest living culture and discover the practices that enabled Australia’s First Peoples to live in harmony with the land.

On this tour families can enjoy

• a 90 minute interactive tour of Barangaroo Reserve led by experienced guides.

• guides sharing stories that speak to the rich cultural history and significance of the site, including stories of Barangaroo the woman, the lives and traditions to her people, and the place that honours her name today.

• visitors will get close to the native flora and fauna and learn how they were used for food, tools and weapons

Wear comfortable shoes, a hat and sunscreen.
