Response to news.com.au

  1. What is your council doing for Australia Day 2025?
  2. Will it be hosting a 2025 citizenship ceremony on Australia Day, January 26? If not, when will it be hosting citizenship ceremonies?
  3. Is this different to your 2024 arrangements? 

The City of Onkaparinga will host our free Australia Day Family Fair in 2025, offering a range of live and roving entertainment, kids activities, food vendors, market stalls and our annual fireworks display at the South Adelaide Football Club from 5:30pm to 9:30pm.

Earlier that day, we’ll host a citizenship ceremony to welcome 67 Onkaparinga residents as new Australian citizens, and present our City of Onkaparinga 2025 Australia Day Awards at the football club.

In the morning, we’ll also host three free Australia Day Breakfasts at Willunga, Noarlunga Centre and Aberfoyle Park from 8–11am.

These arrangements are unchanged from 2024, aside from the location of the citizenship ceremony and award presentation.
