Welcome to Townsville

NAFA is proud to bring world-class performances, vibrant community programs, and unforgettable arts experiences to Townsville each year.

Whether it's inside your home or out in the yard, the choices we make every day matter. Let's all do our part to be Water Wise 365 - because small changes today make a big difference tomorrow.

Townsville is open for business, offering grants and waivers to projects that will help shape our city. The new City Activation and Housing Incentive Policy is designed to spark investment, activate development and bring fresh energy to our city and suburbs. Council is backing projects that increase housing, enhance our CBD and bring new ideas to life.

Artists are invited to submit concepts that will form the North’s premier pop-up public art festival. Spark imagination & wonder, with artworks that celebrate Queensland’s unique stories – creating connection & lasting inspiration. Entries close: 10am, Tuesday 3 November 2026.
