2022 Fulbright Gala Presentation Dinner

The Australian-American Fulbright Commission will host our annual Fulbright Gala Presentation Dinner on Tuesday 5 July 2022 in the Great Hall at Parliament House, Canberra. This is the signature event of the Fulbright Program, and is a wonderful opportunity to meet and celebrate our newest Australian and American scholars and to hear from our inspirational keynote speaker, Fulbright alumnus and President of Warner Music Australasia, Dan Rosen.

Join us in connecting with over 500 representatives and distinguished guests from across academia, Australian and U.S. government and corporate arenas, and share in this unique and memorable occasion.

The Scholar Reception (from 6:15pm) marks the beginning of the evening program, providing an informal opportunity for guests, partners, sponsors, alumni and stakeholders to meet the new scholars, to learn first-hand about their work, and to immerse themselves in the research and innovation of some of the brightest minds in Australia and America.

A Gala Dinner will follow (from 7pm) with an inspiring keynote address, and an opportunity to celebrate our newest Australian and American scholars.

Please note that due to the security processes at Parliament House, all guests must register in advance for this event and carry photo ID with them.
