What is INITIATION About?
Welcome to INITIATION, an interdisciplinary festival that celebrates art, music, and community like no other. With an idyllic location surrounded by nature, INITIATION offers a perfect mix of sound, visual art and cultural experiences. This five-day celebration is the perfect way to welcome the new year with friends, family and fellow music lovers. Join us for an unforgettable experience and be a part of the magic.
​
We would like to acknowledge the traditional owners of the lands on which we will gather: The Mununjali, Yugambeh and Ugarapul People, their Elders, past, present and emerging. We acknowledge the ongoing connection that Aboriginal people have to this land and recognise Aboriginal people as the original custodians.

Our Story
Created by Sundried Events, our festival has been gaining support from the global festival community since its inception in 2021. There is no place you'd rather be on NYE than with us at INITIATION! Our festival is designed to bring together people from all over the world to celebrate the beginning of the new year in style.
