2 Worlds Festival is bringing cultures together for the second time

The 2 Worlds ‘Not For Profit’ Festival returns to the Fyansford Paper Mills and this one is set to be even bigger than the last!
Hosted by The Marrma Rom Two Worlds Foundation, The 2 Worlds Festival returns again for its second year after its debut saw 1500 people attend. With the aim to bring cultures together in a fun, entertaining and interactive festival atmosphere, the event showcases a variety of indigenous and western performers, art, traditional and not-so traditional activities, and indigenous and modern multicultural food offerings.
With a promise of turning it up a notch with more headline acts, more stages and more activities. Just how big you ask? Well wait ’til you hear the killer lineup!
While sharing the rich indigenous culture of language, ceremony and customs, Two Worlds Festival will also celebrate all genres of music, with multiple headliners including 10 Fly High, Above The Bit, Asanti Dance Theatre, Adalita, Alice Skye, Alister Turrill, Andre Warhurst, Andrea Robertson Trio, Ayleen O, Baker Boy, Dallas Woods, Darren Percival, DRMNGNOW, Elli Belle, Hold//Fire, Immy Owusu, James Rigby, The Maes, Monique Clare, Mountain Grey, Phia, Phil & Trudy Edgeley, Sarah Carroll Duo, Shane Howard and Yirrmal Duo, Steady State Massive, Tim Rogers, Todd Cook, William Crighton and Yirrmal and the Miliyawutj.
With so many local and national musicians given the opportunity to showcase their talent and passion, the festival is the newest creative outlet whereby everyone can celebrate everything both cultures have to offer, in a highly inclusive and interactive event.

The importance of a culturally significant location to both indigenous and western culture has meant the ideal location for the event is The Old Paper Mills in Fyansford. With its recent evolution as a future arts and events hub, this location will have long-term significance to culture in the Geelong region. Similarly the area is also culturally significant to the Wathaurong people, as a ceremonial ground.
With the aim of creating a culturally significant event that raises valuable funds to expand the Marrma Rom Foundation, as well as bridging the gap of understanding between two cultures, by bringing them together and celebrating each other, the 2 Worlds Festival is one festival that should not be missed.
It’s time to celebrate culture and walk in two worlds…
The 2 Worlds Festival takes place at the Fyansford Paper Mills, Geelong – October 20.
