Deaf Festival Sydney is Australia’s largest celebration of Deaf Culture & Community.
Since the 1980s, the Deaf Sydney Festival has been Australia’s premier bilingual and bicultural Deaf community event. It’s been held annually at various locations, including Darling Harbour and Parramatta River. In 2021, it moved to Sydney Olympic Park.
Each year we host over 3,000 Deaf community members, Auslan users, Deaf-friendly businesses and allies from across Australia and internationally who join us in Sydney to celebrate and connect.
There’s so many things to see and do, and so many ways to be involved! Keep up to date on the latest Deaf Festival Sydney news by signing up for notifications below!
We respectfully acknowledge the original and traditional custodians of this land, Wangal People of Darug Country, on which our Festival takes place.
We further acknowledge, thank and pay our respects to the traditional custodians of the multitude of Indigenous Nations across Australia.
Always was, always will be.
