“It is truly a celebration of this diverse and talent-filled world that we live in, and is without doubt one of the most important cultural festivals in Australia”
25 years of WOMADelaide!
Fire artists Cie Carabosse return with a special installation The Exodus of Forgotten Peoples in Frome Park – the first use of that space at the festival. Philip Glass Ensemble perform live to the screening of Godfrey Reggio’s KOYAANISQATSI. Austrian electro-swing stars Parov Stelar, the curious experiential theatre of Cie Ekart, the eclectic sounds from the traditional Hanoi Masters, and the dynamic Inna Modja all performed exclusively in Australia for WOMADelaide 2017.
Other crowd favourites included A.B. Original, Archie Roach, Emir Kusturica & The No Smoking Orchestra, The Soil and The Specials.
“Since 1992 WOMADelaide has always been an extraordinary meeting point of cultures, performances and artistic creativity from around the world and the WOMADelaide 2017 lineup truly showcases this diversity of cultural experience for the widest possible audience” - Director, Ian Scobie.
“WOMADelaide 2017 … Australia’s most diverse and surprising festival”
