From dance, music, theatrical, literary, and visual performance to workshops, stalls, lectures, films, traditional foods, and crafts, the festival is truly a creative showcase of traditional Australian culture. It also includes representations from the ancient traditional cultures of New Zeeland and North America.

It also provides the rare opportunity to witness and appreciate ceremonial performances most people may not be able to experience otherwise.
