Abmusic Festival coordinator Jade Masters said the event will provide all Australians with the opportunity to appreciate the diversity and strength of Indigenous culture.
“We will have a corroboree dance circle, traditional dance workshops for young people and host of proud Indigenous organizations on display.” The Festival will provide a special VIP area for Elders with Derbarl Yerrigan Health Service providing free refreshments for Elders.
