What is a community lockdown festival?

2020 has been quite a year already, but we are excited to announce that all is not lost! You don't have to miss out on the Desert Harmony Festival - it will just be a different experience this year.

We have taken the challenge and are working closely with the local community on a unique online 'Community Lockdown' Festival which we will stream onto your phone or into your lounge room on the festival weekend: 31 July - 2 August.

The festival program will be a jam-packed showcase of the creative talents and awesomeness of the people in the Barkly Region presented for all the world to share. There will be cultural activities, Warumungu language, music, art, dance, and more!
