We're pumped to announce two iconic Australian rock acts — Baby Animals Music and Choirboys — will headline our Opening Ceremony! Setting the scene for an unforgettable week 😎
The participant march will kick off at 6pm, followed by live music through to 10pm!
And because one big night isn’t enough, the mid‑week street party is back. The Council Lawns will be buzzing from 5pm, thanks to Alice Springs Town Council, with live entertainment, market stalls and the always‑popular Masters Mile, now open to all ages, alongside the Alice Springs Running & Walking Club.
This is a free, family-friendly event. No tickets required.
