About The Port Macquarie-Hastings Bicentenary 2021:

The Port Macquarie-Hastings Bicentenary 2021 is an opportunity for our community and visitors to come together and commemorate our past; our present and our future across a range of activities aligned with our vision:

To walk our place and discover the stories that weave together to make Port Macquarie-Hastings the region it was, it is, and will be.

In recognition of this milestone in our history and within the framework of Council’s 2018 - 2021 Cultural Plan, a program of activities and initiatives is being planned for 10-18 April 2021.

Council will lead a number of key events and invite community associations and local businesses and organisations to get involved and run additional activities to provide experiences for our community and visitors.

The centerpiece of the program will be an immersive night-time legacy installation; weaving culture and heritage in a world-class immersive story-telling experience on the façade of the Historic Courthouse on Clarence Street, Port Macquarie

Set to launch on Saturday 10 April, the CBD will come to life with a number of COVIDSafe night-time activities to explore.

Council will also launch the Wauchope Bicentenary Riverside Sculpture Trail during this period and is working together with the Local Aboriginal Land Council representatives to identify further appropriate activities to recognise sites of historical and cultural significance.
