Shining bright: Ramingining oval lights up the night !

October 11, 2023

East Arnhem Regional Council recently organised an event to mark the installation of new lighting at the Ramingining Oval, a project that commenced in July and has now been completed.

The lights not only illuminated the oval but also brought a sense of excitement to the community. We marked this occasion with the first-ever night game of AFL held between local teams, The Magpies and the Buffalos. As soon as the lights were switched on, the atmosphere was filled with an overwhelming wave of enthusiasm and joy.


The lighting at the oval covers a substantial area, boasting over 130 Lux, ensuring that the event and activities continued well into the night.


This project was made possible through a combination of East Arnhem Regional Council's allocated reserve funding and essential Local Authority Project Funding from the Northern Territory Government. Both funding sources play a critical role in supporting various approved Public Infrastructure projects throughout the East Arnhem Communities.
