NAIDOC Week 2024
Qantas is proud to celebrate NAIDOC Week.
We strive to reflect the spirit of Australia. That spirit isn't 200 years old. It's over 60,000 years old.
It's an unbelievably vast history of people, culture and knowledge.
Through our commitment to advancing national reconciliation, we seek to honour that knowledge, celebrate those cultures, and make amends for past wrongs. Learn more our commitment to reconciliation
We're proud to be a Gold Sponsor of the 2024 National NAIDOC Week Awards and celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
Keep the Fire Burning! Blak, Loud and Proud
This year's theme celebrates the unyielding spirit of First Nation communities and invites all to stand in solidarity, amplifying the voices that have long been silenced.
The fire represents the enduring strength and vitality of Indigenous cultures, passed down through generations despite the challenges faced.
'Blak, Loud and Proud' encapsulates the unapologetic celebration of Indigenous identity, empowering us to stand tall in our heritage and assert our place in the modern world.

About NAIDOC
NAIDOC Week celebrations are held across Australia each July to celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
NAIDOC is celebrated not only in Indigenous communities, but by Australians from all walks of life. The week is a great opportunity to participate in a range of activities and to support your local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community.
NAIDOC history
NAIDOC stands for National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee. Its origins can be traced to the emergence of Aboriginal groups in the 1920′s which sought to increase awareness in the wider community of the status and treatment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians.
