Experience the colour, sound, taste and diversity of the city to celebrate the many diaspora that call Newcastle home. Connect with community as they take over Museum Park with a vibrant celebration of diverse traditions, food, art forms, and cultural expressions. Join the MC across two stages for food demonstrations, live music, dance, and performances by world music favourites, Worlds CollIde and The Ghana Road Show.

This free community event will feature cooking demonstrations, interactive kids workshops and a wide range of musical and dance performances including a colourful lion dance by Jin Woo Koon, belly dancing and African drum and dance displays, as well as a fire show and DJ sets.

The Ghana Road Show fuse theatre, circus, dance and music, in an unforgettable celebration of the richness of West African arts told through a contemporary lens.

Worlds Collide are straight out of the urban jungles of Western Sydney... Riffs, Rhymes and Culture. Worlds Collide is the intersection of our multicultural nation, seven cultures coming together creating new contemporary Australian music.
