CANBERRA’S National Multicultural Festival won Best Community Event at the Australian Event Awards on Wednesday night.
The award recognises and celebrates the state or territory where the largest number of high-quality events have occurred.
According to ACT Minister for Multicultural Affairs, Tara Cheyne, all records were broken in February with the 25th anniversary of the event, which brought together 170 cultures as part of the three-day festival, attracting 380,000 people and contributing to a total economic benefit of $20.8 million to the local economy.
