Welcome
The Sutherland Shire Citizens' Heritage Festival has been a cherished community tradition for more than 30 years, celebrating the people, places and stories that continue to shape our identity.
The 2026 festival will be held from 18 April to 18 May, featuring a diverse program of events, exhibitions, talks and open days across the Shire. Delivered in partnership with the National Trust of Australia and supported by the Sutherland Shire Council, the festival brings together many local volunteer organisations and well-known community groups who are dedicated to sharing and preserving our heritage.
There is truly something for everyone. We invite you to explore the information on our website and plan the activities that interest you most. Some details are still being finalised, but selecting a participant's name below will take you to their individual information page with the latest updates.
