Welcome to the Australian Heritage Festival 

Get excited—The Australian Heritage Festival is just around the corner!

Australia’s biggest celebration of history and culture returns from Friday, 18 April, to Sunday, 18 May 2025, and this year promises to be more inspiring than ever. For over 40 years, the National Trust has brought communities together to honour the people, places, and stories that shape who we are—and now it’s Queensland’s turn to shine.

With more than 60 events across the state, from city streets to country towns, the Festival invites you to step into the past through exhibitions, guided tours, workshops, food fairs, cultural ceremonies, hands-on demos, and more.

The 2025 theme, Unearthed, is all about revealing hidden stories, rediscovering traditions, and empowering the next generation to become proud custodians of Queensland’s unique heritage. So gather your friends, mark your calendars, and get ready to explore what lies beneath!
