Celebrating Our Heroes in Style: 2025 KIQ Mashujaa Day Awards & Gala Dinner in Brisbane

The Kenyan community in Australia is gearing up for one of the most anticipated and glamorous nights of the year — the 2025 KIQ Mashujaa Day Awards and Gala Dinner. Set to take place on Saturday, November 8 at the stunning Boulevard-Brisbane Exhibition Centre, this black-tie evening promises to be an elegant celebration of heritage, heroism, and 60 years of Kenya-Australia friendship.

Organised by KIQ Events, the evening will begin with a luxurious red carpet arrival, allowing guests to step into the spotlight, pose for the cameras, and soak in the grandeur of the occasion. From there, attendees will indulge in an exquisite dining experience featuring a gourmet menu designed to impress, accompanied by premium beverages that cater to refined palates.

As dinner is served, the entertainment begins. A lineup of live performances from talented artists will keep the energy high throughout the night, delivering soulful music, cultural showcases, and feel-good rhythms that reflect the vibrancy of the Kenyan diaspora. Later in the evening, a lively dance floor will open up, inviting guests to celebrate, connect, and move to a curated mix of Afrobeat, Amapiano, and classic party anthems.

The heart of the evening, however, is the Mashujaa Awards Ceremony. This moving segment of the program honours the men and women in our community who have gone above and beyond — in leadership, service, innovation, and cultural contribution. It is a moment to recognise the unsung heroes, celebrate our collective progress, and inspire the next generation of changemakers.

Early bird tickets are now on sale for only $90, valid for two weeks, after which standard tickets will be priced at $110. Guests are encouraged to secure their spots early, as this event is expected to sell out. The dress code is formal black tie or traditional African attire — a perfect reflection of our community’s elegance and cultural pride.

Whether you are a student, a professional, a community leader, or simply someone who appreciates powerful moments and meaningful celebrations, the 2025 KIQ Mashujaa Gala invites you to be part of something unforgettable. Let’s come together, not just to celebrate our heroes, but to connect, elevate, and finish the year with purpose and unity.

Let this be more than a dinner — let it be a night that strengthens our bonds, celebrates our stories, and honours the spirit of Mashujaa in all of us.
