The Yabun Festival is an all-day celebration of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures in the heart of Sydney.
The renowned annual gathering at Victoria Park in Glebe on Australia Day showcases the finest music, art, dance, performance and food of the world’s oldest living cultures, attracting locals as well as visitors from across Australia and around the world.
The festival’s Yabun Stage each year puts the spotlight on some of the best music talent in the country, with past performers including Archie Roach, Dan Sultan and Jessica Mauboy. On the Corroboree Ground, dancers from across the country have a reputation for kicking up dust, while the festival’s SpeakOut Tent features some of Australia’s leading artists, authors and thinkers.
Gadigal Information Service Aboriginal Corporation organises a successful Yabun Festival each year. The corporation is a leading Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander media and cultural organisation that has been operating in Sydney for the past 23 years.
