One of the highlights of the Message Sticks Festival is the daily Dancestry grounds, where traditional ceremony is performed each day. This year’s gathering in our Dance Grounds features many clans from across Australia, including the Lirrwi Dance Group from Arnhem Land where the world’s oldest instrument the Yidaki originates from.
