Citizenship ceremonies in Camden
This page is for people becoming Australian citizens in the Camden Council area. The council holds five ceremonies each year, and the next listed one is on 10 November 2026. In 2025 it welcomed 928 new citizens.
How you are invited
Home Affairs decides on applications and gives you the date, time and place. The council sends the invitation 2 to 4 weeks before, and has no part in the decision. If you cannot come, tell Home Affairs. You may be invited to a later ceremony, but you may lose your approval if you have not pledged within 12 months.
