Creating a Better Darwin

Darwin – the Capital of the North. Australia’s gateway to 400 million people.

Darwin is one of the great tropical cities of the world and great cities have great city centres.

We are working with our partners to bring new life and vibrancy to our city.

Our goal is a greener, safer and more modern city where people can achieve commercial and personal success and unlock our CBD’s potential as an attractive, bustling and connected capital.

We are working with businesses and the community to create a more vibrant city for people to live, work, study, invest and visit.

To keep up to date and learn how we are creating a better Darwin, sign-up here.

Take a tour of some of the events, street art and projects that will help Darwin city become a greener, brighter and more exciting place to be. There’s a lot to be done and these projects are just a snapshot of what is happening right now. More projects will be added over time.
