World Kangaroo Day events are organised by local groups and advocates, not the Animal Justice Party. We're sharing them for members and supporters who want to get involved.

Every year on 24 October, people around the world come together for World Kangaroo Day to celebrate kangaroos and speak up for their protection.

Kangaroos are one of Australia's most loved animals, yet millions are killed each year. World Kangaroo Day is a chance to show that Australians want our national icon protected, not persecuted.

Find a World Kangaroo Day activity near you – screenings, vigils, talks, art and community gatherings are happening across the country and overseas. Whether you can join for an hour or the whole day, every person who shows up for kangaroos makes a difference.

Can't make it to an event? You can still get involved by sharing World Kangaroo Day on social media and talking to friends and family about why kangaroos deserve better.
