As the winter chill descends, nipaluna / Hobart and Tasmania will once again come alive in a blaze of red for Paint The Town Red, a visually striking celebration running alongside Dark Mofo from 1–21 June 2025.
From the city streets to the regions, local businesses, shops, and public spaces are transforming with red lighting, themed menus, bold decorations, window displays, and red-inspired experiences. This annual activation invites everyone to see southern Tasmania in a different light—literally.
Explore the official digital map to find participating locations and plan your red-themed adventure. Enjoy vibrant red cocktails, cosy illuminated venues, and photo-worthy red installations across the region.

We acknowledge the Tasmanian Aboriginal people and their enduring custodianship of lutruwita / Tasmania. We honour 40,000 years of uninterrupted care, protection and belonging to these islands, before the invasion and colonisation of European settlement. As a destination that welcomes visitors to these lands, we acknowledge our responsibility to represent to our visitors, Tasmania’s deep and complex history, fully, respectfully and truthfully.
We acknowledge the Aboriginal people who continue to care for this country today. We pay our respects to their elders, past and present. We honour their stories, songs, art, and culture, and their aspirations for the future of their people and these lands. We respectfully ask that tourism be a part of that future.
