With exam period over, we hope you are taking some time for yourself or planning to celebrate the summer holidays with friends and family. If you are spending time in Northern Territory during the holidays, there are lots of free events and activities to enjoy throughout December.

Liquid Light at the Darwin Waterfront - 25 November to 31 December 2023

Looking dinner and a show? From Saturday 25 November, Liquid Light will transform the Darwin Waterfront recreation lagoon into a showcase of water, light and sound.

The four week spectacle will include three different shows, with multiple free performances each night until New Year’s Eve.
