The University of Canberra’s Night of Nights is a community-wide celebration of the University, its alumni, outstanding research, and academic achievement. The evening will showcase UC’s positive impact in our community and across the globe, and celebrate our Distinguished Alumni, both lifetime achievers and rising stars and the outstanding contribution they make within their industries and communities.
UC’s Night of Nights used to be known as the Distinguished Alumni Awards, with the first one held in 2001 as part of the University’s celebrations to mark 30 years of teaching on the Bruce campus, with the awards held again in 2008 to coincide with the 40th Anniversary. In the years since, the Distinguished Alumni Awards have become a biennial event that continue to blow us away with the number of amazing alumni who come to the surface. You too can be blown away by our previous winners.
This year, however, the DAA's have been reimagined as UC’s Night of Nights and will step away from the typical lengthy awards ceremony, to be an evening of celebration, with fun and community at the centre of the planning and a spotlight on just two, particularly incredible awards:
Chancellor’s Lifetime Achievement Award
In recognition of a lifetime's achievement.
Chancellor’s Rising Star Award
In recognition of an emerging professional in any industry.
This year UC’s Night of Nights will be celebrated at one of Canberra's most iconic venues, the National Arboretum, on Friday 29 July 2022. This celebration will be our night of nights and is open for the community to join us in celebration, for an evening of fun, food, entertainment and mingling that you will not want to miss! Featuring entertainment from BABBA, Australia's #1 ABBA Tribute, grazing and live cooking stations, and plenty of time and space to have a fantastic night with friends, we promise you will leave with your shoes in your hands and a smile on your face!
