WinterWild 2024 update
Unfortunately, the full WinterWild festival will not be going ahead in 2024. This is due to many reasons, particularly the current insecurity in the music, arts and festival industry and the lack of pre-sold event tickets. This and severe committee burnout from a team of volunteers who have put on 12 festivals together.
However, the team are working on a day-long event incorporating aspects of the DogWatch, WildFeast, and SummerMild with free entertainment, performance art, music, food trucks and fire, lots of fire!
More on that soon.
Thanks for your patience. Any enquiries can be sent to info@winterwild.com.au

:: WILD COUNTRY
WinterWild is held on Gadubanud Country. Sovereignty was never ceded. Respect to the Elders, the holders of knowledge and keepers of stories. Walk softly – this place and its people are important to us. Strength lies in diversity and all are welcome around the fire.
WELCOME TO WINTERWILD
We don’t care about what your physical representation is – we’re much more interested in what you have going on inside. The individual expression of culture, gender and sexuality is a beautiful thing. Keep doing that. We love you.
WinterWild is a secular festival. Ethics and morals are personal and ambiguous. Hold on to your beliefs and respect the right of others to do the same. Communities are ecosystems; they require complexity in order to thrive. Let’s thrive together.
