Sydney Marae Alliance Gala 2026
A Legacy in the Making
Every child deserves to know where they belong. We are working towards a future where Māori children growing up in Australia have a place to connect with their culture, their language and their community, while opening our doors to people from all walks of life who want to learn, connect and walk alongside us.
Join us for an evening that will help bring Australia's first Māori Cultural Centre one step closer to reality.
Be Part of the Story
For years, our community has worked towards creating a place where culture is celebrated, connections are strengthened, and future generations can learn, gather and belong.
Today, that vision is closer than ever.
One day, our tamariki and mokopuna will walk through the doors of the Sydney Māori Cultural Centre and call it home.
This is your opportunity to be part of the story while it is still being written.
