That's a wrap! - Canberra German Week 2024

In Semester 1, Das Zentrum offered our regular monthly event program and then in Semester 2 we launched our very first Canberra German Week - a 10-day festival of events showcasing the best of Austrian, German and Swiss cultures to the wider ACT community.

Thank you to our many community partners, team of 40+ volunteers and to you our members who participated at our events!

Events included a German cultural reception at Parliament House, family day at Spielwelt, Swiss film night at Palace Electric, trivia night, Oktoberfest and Austrian community day at Harmonie German Club, science and innovation day at NFSA and business day at SAP Australia as well as a german teachers conference at Das Zentrum.

Join us in 2025 as we offer even more diverse events and activites!
