History Illuminated

History Illuminated is Lake Macquarie's annual celebration of people, place and the environment through the lens of history.

Each November, the festival brings together authors, historians, artists and community voices for a dynamic program of talks, exhibitions, performances, tours and workshops.

Whether you're passionate about local heritage, curious about untold stories, or love a good yarn, History Illuminated invites you to explore the past in creative and thought-provoking ways.
