Presented by Powerhouse and Indigenous social enterprise We Are Warriors, this all-ages event will showcase a free night of First Nations centred music, dance, art, workshops, markets, food stalls and more, transforming a day associated with loss and sorrow into one of power and positivity.

Headlining Blak Powerhouse 2025 are ARIA award-winning singer-songwriters Arrernte/Gurindji man Dan Sultan and Coodjinburra man Budjerah. They will be joined by rappers Kobie Dee and Yung Brother, artists RIAHMinty and Zipporah with more special guests to be announced soon.

From 5pm, an Acknowledgement of Country will take place at the Manning House North Courtyard, followed by a traditional dance performance. Beyond the live music, a panel discussion titled Take the Crown will take place at Manning Bar followed by a screening of We Are Warriors latest film.

For families the WAWZone arcade created by Gadigal mural artist Jeswri is a must visit along with the hands-on weaving workshops led by Wiradjuri, Yuin and Gadigal multi-disciplinary artist Nadeena Dixon.
