Garabari is a powerful gathering where performer and spectator, Indigenous and nonIndigenous, all become part of a thrilling dance party.A gripping dance of story and rhythm where Wiradjuri culture meets pulsing techno energy, Garabari invites you to plunge into the swirling depths of a new civic ritual and experience culture as a living connection between people and Country. This is your chance to participate in a millennia-old ritual on a monumental scale.
Developed on Wiradjuri Country with Elders and artists, Garabari shares the Giilang (story and song) of Marramalngidyal Marrambidyagu, the making of the Murrumbidgee River, gifted by the late Uncle James Ingram.
Bodies, light and sound weave together in a contemporary experience of gathering. Guided by performers, audiences gain a visceral sense of how story, song and dance continue to live and evolve today. With ethereal costumes by Wiradjuri designer Denni Francisco (Ngali), driving beats by Byron Scullin and enthralling projections by Katie Sfetkidis, Garabari is unlike any corrobboree that has come before it.
Join the party in an inclusive, immersive, multi-sensory event like no other.
