The first Tiwi Cultural Festival in Wurrumiyanga on the beautiful Tiwi Islands attracted a massive crowd. We  saw a huge Tiwi Yoyi (dance) with dancers from all around the communities coming together to spotlight, recognise, teach and celebrate culture.


Amazing music and performances took us into the night from Tiwi Strong Woman's Choir (NGARUKUWALA), Tiwi Band (NGAWA YATI), YELLO and STAN from Tiwi, YUNG MILLA from Darwin, Saltwater band from Elcho Island, Yilila Red Flag and Ngulmiya from Numbulwar.


Thank you to everyone that attended, the dancers, singers and other performers that made for amazing entertainment, and for teaching everyone a little bit more about Tiwi Culture. See you all again next year!
