Bush Magik is a return to our grassroots & rhizomes, a festival for up to 2000 people, consisting of three dance parties across the 30th (Camp party), 31st (NYE party) & the 1st (Recovery party), our renowned Cabaret (NYE) and โ€˜Next Day Crooked Cabaretโ€™ (NYD) as well as an arts & cultural program with panels, workshops & activities happening throughout. Camping is available from 27th-4th for up to 1000 people.

This yearโ€™s theme pays homage to the beauty and enchantment of this great land, while celebrating the connection between the Australian bush and the magikal forces that have shaped the landscapes of ourselves and each other as LGBTQ+ people.

This event takes place on Widjabul Wia-bal jugun in the Bundjalung Nation. Always was, always will be โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ–ค
