5.13: Centenary of Canberra

Work towards a year of memorable celebrations to mark the centenary of Canberra’s naming in 2013.

Other Information:

The ACT Government is working towards a year of memorable celebrations to mark the centenary of Canberra’s naming in 2013. Following intensive community consultation, planning has begun for a program of celebrations, activities and projects, many with lasting benefits for the ACT. Over the next two years priority projects will be identified and scoping and feasibility work will be undertaken. The centenary of the nation’s capital is a unique opportunity to showcase Canberra to a national and international audience. The ACT is working with the Federal Government to form a partnership so that the celebrations are not only for Canberrans but for all Australians. A whole-of-government approach to the centenary will ensure a coordinated and well-managed planning process with a strong emphasis on engaging Canberrans.
