Matariki 2026

Join us at Sydney Observatory to honor the rising of Matariki, the Māori New Year! 🌌 This mid-winter event celebrates Te Mātahi o te Tau with a heartfelt program that emphasizes remembrance and renewal.

Matariki, known as the Pleiades star cluster, marks a poignant time for reflection. 🌠 Share the names of loved ones you’ve lost since the stars last rose and express your hopes for the upcoming year. Your messages will be beautifully projected during the Speaking the Stars ritual, accompanied by stunning visuals from Dark Sky Project and vocal artistry from Jamaica Moana.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity for connection and celebration under the stars! REGISTER NOW
