Destination NT
11 - 14 November 2026
The inaugural Destination NT was held the first week of November 2025 in Darwin. More than 1,000 registered participants across the week took part in Destination NT.
Destination NT will be held 11 – 14 November 2026 in Alice Springs and centred on this year’s theme The Territory Spirit.
The Northern Territory moves with an energy that is hard to name and impossible to forget. It is found in vast landscapes and raw beauty, in vibrant colour and shifting light, in stories carried through people, community and place.
There is something deeply grounded here, shaped by living cultures, bold characters and experiences that stay with you long after the journey ends. From open horizons to star-filled skies, movement and connection flow through every gathering, every journey and very story shared.
Vast, bold and unmistakably alive, the Territory Spirit is what makes this place unforgettable.
It provides an exceptional opportunity for tourism, events and hospitality businesses, government, and industry stakeholders to gain valuable insights while celebrating industry excellence and the resilience and unique character that define the Northern Territory’s visitor economy.
Registrations open shortly.
