Parrtjima

Parrtjima is the only light festival of its kind, showcasing some of the oldest continuous Indigenous cultures on earth through the latest technology. It is considered one of Australia’s most stunning festivals.

Located in Alice Springs Desert Park, Araluen Arts Centre and Alice Spring’s Todd Mall, the festival includes ten nights of daily film, installations, workshops, music, talks and light shows with world-class artists and performers from across Australia. The festival revolves around the country’s indigenous musicians. The aim is to raise awareness of the former but unexplored aboriginals’ art forms and to show their magnificent artworks while also encouraging others to be informed about their rich culture and history.

Parrtjima is a visually spectacular way to experience the culture, art and country of not only the Red Centre, but Australia itself and is a must-do addition to everyone’s bucket-list.
