When are tickets going on sale?

These notifications will include a link to Humanitix to purchase your tickets. Due to the popularity of this event we strongly advise that you purchase tickets as close to the release date so as to avoid the disappointment of missing out.

Is there early access for members?

Members of Reconciliation SA will receive 24 hours of early access to tickets from Wednesday 12 March 10am ACST. Members will receive an email that morning with the details of how to access these tickets.

Please ensure your membership email is up to date (via your membership login portal) to avoid missing this notification.

How can I guarantee a table/seat at the 2025 National Reconciliation Week Breakfast?

Each year the NRW Breakfast sells out very quickly. This year we have increased the capacity again to meet demand. However, to ensure that you are guaranteed a seat at the event, you have a couple of options:

1. Become a member of Reconciliation SA. Members will receive early access 24 hours prior to General Admission tickets going on sale.

2. Sign up to our newsletter to receive an email straight to your inbox once General Admission tickets go on sale.

I am booking a table, but I won’t have all the names and dietary requirements for each guest right away. Can I add this information at a later date?

Yes! Your deadline to add all dietary requirements and names for your table is 5pm Friday 16 May 2024.

In May, you will receive an automated email via our ticketing platform Humanitix with a link to follow to add all your final dietary requirements if you are not able to include them at the time of booking your table.

Or you can go into your original booking confirmation email at any time before the cut off date to update attendee information by clicking the link in your email that says 'Manage Order'.

Are there any complimentary tickets available?

If you are an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander person and are unable to purchase a ticket, you may be eligible for a complimentary ticket, through the generosity of our Community Table sponsors. Please lodge your submission on our NRW Breakfast Community Ticket Register 2025 form to be considered.

We are unable to guarantee a free ticket for everyone who expresses their interest in attending as our free ticket allocation is limited, however we do our best, based on the amount of free tickets we have available through our sponsors.

You will be notified within 5 business days after submitting your expression of interest whether or not we will be able to accommodate your request.

What do I do if I miss out on a ticket?

You are able to join the waitlist via Humanitix. Simply head to our event page on Humanitix, select 'Get Tickets' and then 'Join Waitlist'.

For any tickets that may become available, they will be offered to those who are first on the list. If you would like to know where you are placed on the waiting list, please email our Events team.

NRW Breakfast 2024

The theme of the NRW Breakfast 2024 was Now More Than Ever, a reminder to all of us that no matter what, the fight for justice and the rights of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people will —and must —continue.

Reconciliation SA was honored to have television and film actor Luke Carroll host our program as the event MC, curating what was a tremendously successful and poingant affair.

The event was attended by over 2,800 guests to hear from speakers including Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Attorney-General the Hon Kyam Maher MLC, multi-hyphenate artist Briggs, and Kaurna elders Aunty Rosalind Coleman and Tim Agius. Plus performances by Of Desert & Sea Dance, Rob Edwards Music and DEM MOB.

Some stunning images and live replay of the event can be found below, thanks to our media sponsor www.ctvplus.org.au for the wonderful coverage.
