Water Night 2025

Water Night is Australia’s annual national water literacy challenge.

On Thursday 23 October, households, schools, and businesses across the country will switch off all taps from 5–10pm to discover how often they reach for water — and how small changes can make a big difference.

This year’s theme, From Habit to Hero, highlights how everyday water habits, when adjusted, can turn ordinary people into water heroes.

Water Night is a chance to boost water literacy, improve household water knowledge, and strengthen our collective water security.
