The NAIDOC Breakfast and March 2023 'For Our Elders' in Darwin City was too deadly with so many people, young mob and elders from right across the Top End attending to take part. With speeches after the march from Larrakia Nation and traditional dances from both Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and then the Legendary Saltwater Band performing many fan favourites.
Thank you to everyone that attended and all the sponsors that make this such a special event on Darwin's NAIDOC calendar for 2023.
