GIIYONG GANYA 2026
Giiyong Festival is now a biennial event with the next Festival taking place in 2027. A new sister event, Giiyong Ganya, will be delivered in the alternate years.
Giiyong Ganya is not a festival format. It is designed to offer skills development opportunities for Aboriginal people and immersive cultural experiences for audiences.
In 2026, event producers Twofold Aboriginal Corporation and its partners will be delivering a week of creative and cultural learning to build capacity in the local Aboriginal Community, helping support emerging artists and Cultural leaders.
This will culminate on Saturday 28 November 2026 with a day of public workshops and a free in-the-round concert in the evening that will include music, digital art and storytelling.
Giiyong Ganya will create an intimate atmosphere for audiences, allowing people to connect more deeply with Culture and Country.
More information will be released in coming weeks.
