The 2023 Midwinter Festival at Ngununggula is a site-responsive festival that brings together nationally acclaimed artists, musicians and local producers to celebrate the region.

The festival will transform the Gallery and its grounds with a program of art, music, food and wine, including a choreographed drone light show developed in partnership with the Fremantle Biennale that honours ancestral stories of the Gundungurra Country upon which Ngununggula is based. The festival will also see the return of Burning Man, a large-scale sculptural installation by celebrated Australian artist Ben Quilty and local collaborators.

So grab your winter woollies, round up your friends and family and come to Ngununggula for a weekend of art, music, food, wine, family activities, light and fire!
