EARTHDANCE SEQ 2006
Global Festival for Peace
Weekend 15-17 September
Givin' peace another dance...
On Saturday September 16th, 2006, in over 250 cities in 50 countries, the 10th annual Earthdance will once again unite in support of global peace and social justice.
Other Realm and Gooble Warming proudly present Earthdance SEQ, held outdoors near Brisbane on the weekend of the 15th-17th of September, 2006.
Earthdance aims to promote peace by joining participants worldwide in a synchronized ‘Prayer for Peace’, and to support humanitarian causes through the global language of music and dance. Earthdance has now grown to include a diverse cross-section of musical genres including world music, jazz, conscious hip-hop, folk and reggae.
The focus for this year’s Earthdance is the wisdom of indigenous peoples, and we invite all first peoples to join in the Prayer for Peace moment with healing prayers for the planet.
EARTHDANCE SEQ 06
This camping weekend for peace will feature workshops, bush activities, healing and chill space, camp-in psinema and a diverse program of entertainment, inviting participation from local independent bands, solo artists, electronic artists, djs, vjs, performers, visual artists, and of course, all you fun-k people out there!
The festival will culminate in the Prayer for Peace, and a traditional indigenous ceremony, it will be a time for us to reflect, and project our hopes for a future of peace.
THE SITE
A beautiful Aussie bush setting, Peak Crossing is located less than 1 hour southwest of Brisbane on the traditional lands of the Ugurapal people.
There is plenty of space for camping, but be early to ensure a good spot.
Earlybirds can arrive from 2pm on Friday, if you come before this, you will be expected to help !
Come prepared with your usual camping comforts, and settle in to the warm and intimate space we’ve created.
