What's on: Rogue and wild events happening in Darwin this weekend
WHAT'S ON THIS WEEKEND Who went to the Rodeo at the Waterfront last night? There's more fun to be had – today, the DCOH Darwin Guineas Day kicks off the Great Northern Darwin Cup Carnival at the Darwin Turf Club. If you'd prefer to take the weekend to do some Dry season gardening, there are a couple of plant sales again this weekend too. Head to the Karama Community Garden Plant Sale from 10am, for a wide selection of native and tropical plants, or on Sunday, plant lovers can also check out the Friends of the Botanic Gardens Plant Sale at George Brown Darwin Botanic Gardens from 8am to Midday – and there's usually some volunteers there to offer gardening advice, which is always handy. Also on Sunday, music fans can go and check out the First Sunday Blues at Tracy Village Social and Sports Club from 3pm – it's always a good time, a very chill afternoon of blues and rock music out in the courtyard, and if you get there early you can get your name on the board and play a song. For the kids - the Palmerston Youth Festival kicks off on Saturday and continues all weekend across various venues in Palmerston, featuring workshops, performances and all kinds of events for young people, including the popular Geekfest Top End. I've spoken about this venue before, Dock One, the newest venue to open on the Stokes Hill Wharf. It's an intimate venue with a beach vibe, but it maintains a level of sophistication, and it's been popular! There have been times we have wanted to get out on the water and watch the sunset over the city (one of the only places you can do this), and there hasn't been a table … so they made a new deck. Literally. Dock One now features an expanded viewing deck, with a heap more tables and an even better view of the city. It's an awesome sunset venue to add to your rotation with a great all-day tapas and cocktails menu. LOCAL'S TIP So we all survived to live another Territory Day. Love it or hate it, it's certainly one of those events that makes the NT a unique place to live. As Territorians, I think we like the idea that we are a little bit different – maybe a little bit rogue. After all, I guess you've got to be a little bit rogue to survive those precious Nightcliff Dry season swims, to thrive in the months-long humidity, and to put up with the ruthless 2am flight times. So in celebration of all things rogue, there are a few more iconic events coming up this Dry season to remind you of before your calendar gets full. Firstly: The Mega Annual Viking Funeral. Last year, I took my parents for a laugh, and posted a reel about it on We Are Locals – it was shared almost 1000 times – and I was surprised by the number of people who commented that they'd lived their whole lives here and never heard of it! There's literally a burning boat that gets shot with flaming arrows … how could you not want to check that out at least once! There's also delicious food and live music – this year the iconic Stereobate will be playing … and it's your one and only chance every year to see people wearing fur in Darwin! Mark the calendars for July 12, at the Dinah Beach Cruising Yacht Association.

Carrie Bickmore sizzles in skimpy bikini while on holiday with Tommy Little
Carrie Bickmore and Tommy Little have once again fuelled romance rumours after going on holiday together. The pair travelled to Hayman Island with some of their colleagues from the Carrie & Tommy radio show as Bickmore stripped down to a skimpy bikini. Bickmore celebrated the trip away by sharing some pictures of herself showing off her slim physique in a hot pink bikini. Carrie shared a reel of photos from the idyllic getaway, including one where she sizzles in a hot pink-patterned bikini. She also shared a snap of herself in a low-cut dress as she headed to dinner with Little and some of their other radio station colleagues. The celebrity duo have been at the centre of rumours that there's a romance between them for months, with fans believing their on-air back and forth is far too flirty to be platonic. Rumours began after Bickmore split from her second husband, Chris Walker, in January 2023. The pair were together for more than a decade and share two daughters, Evie and Adelaide. Little, who split from ex-girlfriend Natalie Kyriacou in 2021, addressed rumours of a romance between them back in March, denying that there's any kind of spark between them. 'There have been romance rumours about Carrie and I, but unfortunately, because Carrie is in my age bracket (my Tinder age bracket is legal to dead), but I'm not in Carrie's age bracket,' he said. 'She only likes much older, powerful men.' Meanwhile, the pair both recently appeared together on the finale of The Project. The Project's longest-serving host, Bickmore, was close to tears thanking everyone she crossed paths with over 13 years. She left the show to fully devote herself to fundraising efforts for brain cancer. 'It's been ten years since my Gold Logie speech, since I started Carrie's Beanies for brain cancer and I genuinely, I wanted to raise $1m. I would not have raised over $25m if it wasn't for you guys at home watching. So thank you so much.' Comedic regular Little also went on to explain his motivation for joining the show. 'The one thing that I did want to say is to the people back home; my time on the show – which I will be forever grateful for – was just trying to make you laugh.' 'People at home, if you'd often have days where you wouldn't have a laugh – that's all I wanted to give you and I understand that it is a privilege doing what we get to do.'
