The Centenary of Canberra…
Four beautiful seasons, twelve fantastic months, one very big year.

In 2013 Canberra will celebrate 100 years since the naming of Canberra as the National Capital of Australia, with the official birthday celebration on 12 March 2013.
As part of the centenary celebrations, a year-long program has been developed. It will include new and exciting events, but will equally showcase what is already special about our nation’s capital. Covering major sporting firsts and national championships, science, arts, architecture, education, environment, diverse cultures and big ideas. The program will include major events, touring exhibitions, performances, debates and interactive projects. The Centenary of Canberra offers an ideal opportunity for national and international conferences to discover all that the city has to offer and to be a part of the celebrations, making it a desirable time to hold an event in Canberra. 2013 will certainly be a year of myth-busting, revealing Canberra’s very full calendar of events and demonstrating what a lively, active twenty-first century city our nation’s capital truly is.
