SYDNEY: The Armenian National Committee of Australia (ANC-AU) is pleased to announce that its premier annual event, the 2025 Sydney ANC-AU Gala, will be held on Saturday, 29 November 2025, commending at 6:30pm at the prestigious Sofitel Wentworth Ballroom in Sydney’s CBD.
The ANC-AU has proudly unveiled its official 50th Anniversary logo, which was released last month to mark 50 years since the organisation’s establishment. The logo reflects the organisation’s five decades of tireless advocacy, community representation, and nation-building efforts - serving as a symbol of both heritage and continuity, it will feature prominently throughout the year’s commemorative events, including the upcoming Gala.
This year’s anniversary carries the motto “Honouring Our Past, Securing Our Future”, encapsulating the dual mission of the ANC-AU. It pays tribute to the generations who laid the foundation of advocacy for Armenian-Australians while reaffirming the organisation’s commitment to safeguarding the rights, identity, and aspirations of future Armenians, both in the diaspora and the Armenian homeland.
Attendees in Sydney will include prominent figures from Australian political, diplomatic, academic, media, and NGO sectors, all united in their support of ANC-AU’s mission, celebrating the collective achievements of the Armenian-Australian community’s advocacy efforts over the past 50 years.
The organisation has already secured the 2025 Advocacy Week ‘International Guest of Honour’ who will participate in the organisation’s annual Advocacy Week ahead of the Sydney Gala event and will be announced in the coming weeks.
Michael Kolokossian, Executive Director of the Armenian National Committee of Australia said: “This year’s Gala will be especially significant as we mark 50 years of dedicated service to our community. The theme, ‘Honouring Our Past, Securing Our Future,’ underscores the enduring importance of remembrance, resilience, and responsibility as the ANC-AU continues its work in service of the community and the generations to come.”
The ANC-AU 50th Anniversary Gala will stand as the flagship celebration of this milestone year.
