Turn up in the NT this spring.

When you turn up in the Northern Territory in spring, it’s different. Different to anywhere else in Australia. We’ve kicked off summer a little early up here.

Truth be known, we never really turned down the sunshine dial. While it’s still chilly down south, it’s already summer in the NT. But it’s not just the weather that’s turned up. We’ve turned up the connection and the colour. The exhilaration and the action too. Spring is the season when your senses get turned up.

What are you waiting for?

Turn up in the NT this spring and you’ll find less crowds, more sunshine and a whole lot of connection to country. You’ll also find we’ve turned up the adrenalin a notch, with action and outdoor adventures aplenty.

So turn up for an early summer this spring in the Northern Territory.
