Turns out ABC news did some editing of those clips.
There were no dignitaries present
"101 Doll Squadron contested the timeline presented in the ABC’s news clip, saying they had performed before the formal event, and before the dignitaries arrived.
“A short piece taken out of context in what was a very long day performed before the official ceremony and before the arrival of dignitaries, and not part of it,” they said."

I once saw Ceremonial Sunset on the stern of HMAS Darwin. They did a First People's ceremony, plus the usual lowering of the flag. No twerking though, which is a pity looking back on it.
