Mawson’s Huts Foundation Gala Dinner

As part of the Australian Antarctic Festival 2026, join the Mawson's Huts Foundation for an unforgettable after-dark celebration of Antarctic heritage.

Begin the evening with an exclusive champagne reception and private viewing of the Hadley's Art Prize before enjoying a three-course dinner with drinks and a keynote presentation by acclaimed broadcaster and Antarctic advocate Andrew Denton.

Connect with fellow Antarctic supporters, researchers and explorers while helping preserve Mawson's historic huts through live and silent auctions, a lucky door prize and exclusive experiences, including the chance to bid on a voyage to Antarctica with Terra Nova Expeditions.

Every ticket purchased and every auction bid directly supports the Mawson’s Huts Foundation efforts.

Dress code: Smart casual evening wear.
