Blak, Bold & Deadly is inspired by the 2025 NAIDOC theme The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy, and will honour the artists and ancestors who came before while shining a spotlight on the future of Blak excellence.
This is more than just a gig—it’s a space for connection, celebration, and empowerment. Through bold storytelling, and an immersive atmosphere, we’ll amplify First Nations voices and perspectives in a night to remember.
The celebration will start with a smoking ceremony at 6.30pm run by Layne Brown, proud Yuin man.
Line-up includes:
Zipporah
Cooee
Jacob Morris
Zoë Brown-Holten
Fancy (MC)
and more to be announced!
