Discover the 25th Biennale of Sydney: “Rememory” at White Bay Power Station - a powerful exploration of memory, identity and storytelling.

The 25th edition of the Biennale of Sydney invites you to explore the fragile space between remembering and forgetting. Through the theme Rememory, participating artists bring forward marginalised histories, amplify untold narratives, and challenge us to reconsider how memory shapes personal and collective identity.

Returning to White Bay Power Station in 2026, this 25th edition —curated by internationally renowned Artistic Director Hoor Al Qasim i—offers a bold and thought‑provoking celebration of contemporary art. Presented free to the public, Rememory examines the ways memory, history, and cultural storytelling influence belonging and shape how communities understand themselves.

Immerse yourself in a transformative artistic journey as the Biennale of Sydney once again becomes a global stage for dialogue, creativity, and connection.  As part of this landmark edition, the Biennale also debuts Memory Lane Markets, bringing together a vibrant mix of multicultural food vendors whose dishes are shaped by memory, heritage, and identity.
