Event Details - 25 October - 02 November 2024
Club members worldwide are invited to the 2024 Friendship Force International Gathering on Norfolk Island in the South Pacific, home to the Bounty Mutineer descendants and with a colourful history.
There are 19 Friendship Force clubs across Australia. Every two years these clubs gather together to develop their understanding and further their experiences in each new location, in accordance with the Friendship Force organisation mission.
For the first time, a Friendship Force Gathering of Australian Clubs will be open to International Club members.
For us, travel is about more than taking a vacation. With over 300 clubs and thousands of members worldwide, Friendship Force International's mission is to connect people and promote global understanding across barriers.
Through home-hosting and meaningful travel experiences, participants learn about other cultures, develop a better understanding of our world, and discover our shared humanity.
Members travelling from outside Australia need to make their own international arrangements to join flights to Norfolk Island departing from Brisbane or Sydney. We highly recommend you make the most of your holiday by adding on some extra time before or after the Gathering in one of these cities, or other destinations in Australia. If you’re not able to book your own international flights on-line, talk to a local travel agent near you. (Note that return flights from Brisbane or Sydney to Norfolk are already included in Norfolk Island Travel Centre Friendship Force Gathering packages).
