The Robe River Kuruma Aboriginal Corporation (RRKAC) is proud to commemorate a significant milestone, marking 10 years of Native Title recognition with a day of community celebrations in Pannawonica.

The celebrations will begin with a special RRK members and families-only gathering at Parlapuuni from 10:30am to 12:00pm, providing an opportunity for members to come together, connect with family, reflect on the Native Title journey, and mark this important achievement on Country.

The day will then continue with a free community event at Pannawonica Oval from 1:00pm to 6:00pm, welcoming the wider community to join in recognising this historic milestone. The afternoon will feature free food and refreshments, live entertainment, children’s activities, and opportunities for community connection.

A special highlight of the event will be the photographic exhibition, Our People. Our Stories. Our History., showcasing photographs and memories that honour Robe River Kuruma people, family connections, connection to Country, and the journey to Native Title recognition. The exhibition invites visitors to remember the past, celebrate the present, and look towards the future.

Attendees will also enjoy live performances from Roebourne country music duo JoKeria and popular Pilbara band Until Closing Time, providing an afternoon of country, rock, blues and crowd favourites.

These celebrations recognise not only a decade of Native Title recognition, but also generations of enduring connection to Country, culture, family and community. It is an opportunity to reflect on the past, celebrate the present, and look forward to the future under the theme “Our People, Our Country, Our Future.”

Free entry, free food and free entertainment at the community celebration. Everyone is welcome to attend the Pannawonica Oval event.
