Join us as the sun rises over Bondi Beach for our annual Dawn Reflection, an opportunity for the community to gather in quiet reflection, acknowledging our First Nations community.
The event serves as a reminder of the enduring resilience and survival of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and culture.
The reflection will start at 5:30am on the sand of Bondi Beach, in front of Bondi Pavilion. Attendees can expect to experience cultural expression from:
- Josh Sly playing the Didgeridoo
- La Perouse Elder Aunty Lola Ryan, conducting a Welcome to Country and also reflecting in her own words, what the day means to her
- The Gamay Dancers with traditional dance from the local area and a smoking ceremony
- The Dhinawan Yarn dancers
This event is proudly produced by Waverley Council
