The Merindas

Returning to QPAC in 2023, the Clancestry festival celebrates everything that is beautiful, Blak and deadly about First Nations arts and culture, across an exciting program of live events, activities, concerts, workshops, theatre, children’s events and more! This year we celebrate the 10th anniversary since the first Clancestry, and come together to create, connect, and share as our ancestors have done for thousands of years before us. Take part in an incredible musical journey with master musician William Barton, a concert featuring Troy Cassar-Daley bringing together incredible artists across different genres of music and generations, intimate theatre by Emily Wells and an exciting program of free live music, children’s events, workshops, with more to be announced! Clancestry is an annual First Nations festival proudly programmed, curated and run by Australian First Nations People, supporting more than a hundred First Nations artists every year.
