The Orana Woman

This is the digital home of The Orana Woman and The Orana Every Woman Festival.

The Orana Woman is a year-round community platform for women across Dubbo and the towns, stations and communities of the Orana on Wiradjuri Country. We share stories, profiles, gatherings and the work that connects a region. The things that hold communities together do not always make the news — but here, they matter.

Once a year, the platform peaks as the Orana Every Woman Festival during International Women’s Week. The rest of the year, we keep telling the stories.

The 2026 Festival was a week-long celebration of creativity, wellbeing, storytelling, and community across multiple venues in Dubbo, with a free Orana Wide Digital Festival Pass ensuring women and girls across the region can take part.
