Thousands of motorsport fans embraced the raw energy of the 2024 betr Darwin Triple Crown Supercars Indigenous Round over the weekend. There was nearly 40,000 attendances at Hidden Valley Raceway from 14-16 June. As with every event our partnerships are key and we worked closely with them to deliver a unique and exciting experience that keeps fans coming back year after year. Working in collaboration with Supercars we delivered an unforgettable five days of action including an Australian-first Track to Town. It was a sight to behold as 25 Supercars roared through the CBD before stopping to meet fans for a signing session. We are always striving to push our events further and the addition of Track to Town brought a new level of excitement and interaction for both teams, and fans. Teams embraced the official Supercars Indigenous Round with every single Supercars and several vehicles from other categories wrapped in liveries featuring artwork by Indigenous artists. There was also a rousing Welcome to Country and national anthem by The Youth Mill on Sunday and a Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony on Wednesday at the Night Transporter Convoy. Racing Together, an Indigenous youth racing team travelled from Brisbane to compete in the Combined Sedans category. This year also saw racing teams and fans alike embrace the Top End’s stunning winter weather by exploring tourism offerings such as meeting a croc or two, and immersing in nature at Litchfield and Kakadu National Parks. We can’t wait to welcome fans back to the Darwin Triple Crown in 2025!

The program promises 10 nights of fantastic entertainment under star-studded desert skies and celebrates this year’s theme, the importance of interconnectedness across Indigenous culture.   Our CEO, Suzana Bishop, recently touched on the significance of the festival to the Northern Territory: "Our events' impact extends far beyond economic stimulus. While Parrtjima undeniably generates significant economic benefits for the region, its influence transcends financial metrics."
