The Far East Music Festival will take place on the wilderness coast in the small and remote coastal township of Mallacoota in Victoria on the Easter weekend, April 7-9 2023.This fledgling festival, born out of the ashes of a black summer, brings forth the green shoots of recovery and calls out to the healing spirit within us all.
Project partner and Songlines Music Aboriginal Corporation Co-CEO, Robbie Bundle says:
“The entire human family needs nurturing and music is the channel for that. We are living through challenging times, particularly for young people.Their voices need to be heard. They need to be seen and recognised.The beauty of the natural environment in Far East Gippsland has always been personified by the people who reside there, and how they protect the Country they live in–expressed so eloquently over many years through music, art and culture.”
The Festival will feature touring artists along with local and regional acts and an array of activities and workshops to inspire participation and connection—including the return of the legendary percussion street parade, a retro teams board riders comp, nature-based activities, creative workshops, dedicated wellbeing space, food vans and so much more.
