Celebrating First Nations culture

One of the largest NAIDOC events in Queensland, QTIC’s annual NAIDOC Corporate Breakfast returns to Meanjin, Brisbane for an inspiring morning of storytelling, music and connection.

Centered around this year’s National NAIDOQ Week theme, 50 Years of Deadly, the event will celebrate the entrepreneurial spirit, innovation, and leadership driving the future of First Nations tourism and business.

Join industry leaders, cultural voices and changemakers as we come together to connect and be inspired by the stories and ideas shaping the next generation of First Nations tourism.
