What is Harmony Day?

Celebrated in Australia every 21st of March, Harmony Day is the day to celebrate cultural diversity and the nation’s cultural heritage. The day is typically celebrated with a range of events and activities aimed at promoting inclusiveness, respect, and a sense of belonging for everyone in Australia, and of the positive impact that this diversity has on our communities, our economy, and our society.

How can you celebrate Harmony Day?

Wear Orange!

This symbolizes a unity of purpose and a desire for a harmonious society, where everyone is treated equally, regardless of their background or beliefs. Schools, community groups, and individuals across Australia wear orange on Harmony Day to show their support for the day's message of inclusiveness and respect.
