First Nations Family Fun Day

Apr 12, 2025, 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM

Get ready for something special as Kabi Kabi and Jinibara First Nations People share their culture through games, dancing, and craft activities, for all ages.

• learn about ochre painting and perhaps try it yourself
• explore and taste your way through the region’s bush foods
• channel your inner chef with cooking demos and workshops
• settle in for a story
• or purchase wares at the First Nations market stalls and food vans.

The highlight of the day is the Corroboree, featuring a smoking ceremony, dance and didgeridoo performance.

Enjoy a guided tour of Bankfoot House, the heritage listed home of early pioneers.
And since Bankfoot House has the best views of Mt Tibrogargan, why not pack a picnic blanket and relax in the spacious grounds.

The event is held during the Australian Heritage Festival and is a fun way to build stronger relationships and unite communities through a shared respect for culture and heritage.

This event is funded by the Sunshine Coast Council, Arts and Heritage Levy.
