Returning August 11-13, 2023 to the Darwin Convention Centre on Larrakia Country, AND online, there are now even more ways to experience the Fair.

Ethically purchase artwork direct from over 70 Indigenous owned Art Centres from Australia’s most remote desert and coastal regions. DAAF is FREE to attend, and 100% of all sales made go directly back to the Art Centres, supporting the artists and their communities.

Immerse in a vibrant Public Program of traditional dance performances, material demonstrations, workshops, children’s activities, artists talks, and more!

In the days leading up to the Fair, enjoy the iconic Country to Couture fashion runway (8 August), and the prestigious National Indigenous Fashion Awards (9 August).

It’s an incredible time to come together in the Top End and engage with the contemporary creations of the world’s oldest continuous living cultures!
