Harmony Week Celebrations in the City of Salisbury will be vibrant and colourful. Visit Salisbury Civic Plaza (Inparrinthi Kumangka), in Church Street, Salisbury for entertainment, guest speakers, an intercultural parade, live music and cultural performances, including a didgeridoo performance as part of the Welcome to Country.



Show your love of learning about other cultures by attending a Harmony Week event.



Visitors are welcome to wear something orange or a traditional cultural outfit. Pre-registrations are essential for this event due to Council's management of the health risks surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.



"Orange is the colour chosen to represent Harmony Week. Traditionally, orange signifies social communication and meaningful conversations. It also relates to the freedom of ideas and encouragement of mutual respect. Australians can choose to wear something orange during Harmony Week to show their support for cultural diversity and an inclusive Australia." (Source: www.harmony.gov.au)

A mini-market at the plaza will have a range of food and craft on sale, hosted by the Australia Refugee Association .
