About the event
The ACN National Nurses Breakfast is hosted each year in celebration of International Nurses Day on 12 May.
This campaign encourages nurses and their supporters to host a breakfast or get-together at their workplace, university or community centre, or treat themselves to a self-care breakfast.
Registrations for our 2021 ACN National Nurses Breakfast have closed.

We were proud to mark the special occasion with celebratory flags and a special Carillon light display in Canberra. We also raised awareness through a number of media appearances, including a Studio 10 live cross.

A tribute and thank you to nurses
There is no better time than International Nurses Day to recognise the extraordinary contributions and sacrifices nurses have made throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. To capture the stories, emotions and events of this unprecedented time for our profession, we asked our Distinguished Life Fellows, Fellows, Members and Students to contribute to our ACN Community Digital Mosaic Wall.
Check out the mosaic to see the many faces that have come together to create a powerful memento of 2020 and read some of the touching stories we received.
