Entry Criteria
Your event doesn't need to be big or fancy or boast of famous connections (although that's always good!) it just needs to be a heritage event that relates to our 2024 theme, Connections.
Encouraging the community to celebrate the rich and diverse stories of our nation, strengthen cultural and historical ties and forge new bonds. Celebrates our link to people, places and the past, and the enduring connections that will shape the future of heritage.
1. Offer something special
Open something that isn't normally open/offered to the public or offer free entry to a usually paid-for destination or activity. What if your site or event is open free of charge all year round? Do something out of the ordinary or just showcase what you are best at! Here are some simple ideas:
- Have volunteer stewards on site to greet and answer questions.
- Put on some activities or a competition.
- Invite other groups to showcase their work - e.g. artists, choirs, local history societies.
2. Provides some form of information
Australian Heritage Festival visitors want to learn something new. You can support their exploration by providing:
