Michael Long and The Long Walk Naarm 2024 returns to Melbourne to celebrate its 20th anniversary in the Yarra Park Gardens at the MCG.
In 2004, former AFL legend Michael Long decided that something needed to be done about the plight of the Indigenous community, so he walked from his home in Melbourne all the way to Parliament House in Canberra. The Long Walk was born, with money raised to support Indigenous education programs across the country.
Twenty years on, Michael Long and the Long Walk return to Melbourne with live music performed by some of Australia's leading Indigenous artists, free sport and art activations for the family, and food trucks to keep everyone going. The event again concludes with the iconic Walk to the G, as part of the traditional Dreamtime AFL match between Essendon and Richmond.
Come along and help celebrate the incredible 20th anniversary milestone.
