Young people across the Territory are gearing up to celebrate NT Youth Week 2023 with 290 events set to take place in Darwin, Palmerston, East Arnhem, Katherine, Barkly and Alice Springs from 6 to 16 April 2023.

With the Easter school holidays coinciding with this year’s NT Youth Week, there is something on offer for all young people from dance, make-up or DJ workshops to disco nights, roller skating and Easter egg hunts.

Quotes from Minister for Youth Lauren Moss:

“The Territory Labor Government values our young people and this year’s NTYW theme, Break Free, Unleash Your Story, is a call to action to inspire and empower Territory youth to get involved in their community and have their say on important topics that impact young Territorians.

“Whether it’s attending a fun event or learning something new in a workshop to participating in the youth conferences, forums and Awards, NT Youth Week is really about young people coming together and celebrating.”
