ABC CELEBRATES 90 YEARS

For 90 years, the ABC has been connecting Australians and in 2022 we celebrated this significant milestone by bringing groups of 90 people together to celebrate and perform our brand song, “I am Australian”. Delivering an abundance of feels, this work has won global and local awards for creative excellence but more importantly, it built enormous brand love for the ABC.
