Held everywhere in Leeton and organised by the town's multicultural support group, the day is always a fun one for everyone involved and 2021 was no different.
Many wore touches of orange, which is the colour of Harmony Day, while others put on their dancing shoes and singing voices to perform and entertain those gathered.
A delicious feast of food was put on for all to enjoy, with everyone having a hand in the cooking.
Children could be seen playing together and adults enjoying a catch up and making new friends as well.
Harmony Day is part of a wider week of national celebrations to recognise diversity and inclusion activities that take place during the entire week.
