Event registration for 2023 is now open!
Registering your event for the Australian Heritage Festival connects you with likeminded organisations and individuals across the nation. By hosting an event, you’re providing new opportunities for the community to access important Shared Stories of our heritage and helping us to position heritage as important, enriching, valuable and worth celebrating for all.
You could be organising a walking tour, leading a guided tour of an historic place, hosting a talk… Putting on an art or photography exhibition? Terrific. Hosting a seminar or workshop? Fantastic. Planning on doing any of that virtually? Organise your Facebook live or Zoom details for your digital event and we’ll bring people to you.
There is no fee for registering your event with the Australian Heritage Festival.
Don’t forget to promote your event with the hashtag #AHF2023 to help us spread the word and be sure to tag us in your photos along the way:
Facebook: @AustralianHeritageFestival
Twitter: @HeritageFestAus

Each state has a dedicated festival coordinator to assist with any queries along the way. You can find their contact information here.
