Windows to the World





Overview
Windows to the World offers a unique opportunity to step inside some of the city's embassies and high commissions and explore international architecture, gardens, culture, and traditions without leaving the capital.
This biennial event opens the gates to a number of diplomatic embassies across Canberra, allowing the public to enjoy guided tours, cultural performances, traditional food and drink, and interactive displays from across the globe. It's a chance to learn more about international diplomacy and experience the rich multicultural landscape that contributes to Canberra's global identity.
As a lead-in to the main event, Windows to the World at Floriade will be held in Commonwealth Park. A selection of embassies will host pop-up displays as part of Floriade's final weekend, giving visitors a preview of what's to come.
Windows to the World is a celebration of cultural diversity, international connections and the role Canberra plays on the world stage. Whether you're curious about global traditions or interested in the stories behind the embassies, this event offers something for all ages and interests.
