25.01.2022 In the final episode The Last Frontier The Gulf Country Frontier Days Festival. We would also like to take a moment to pause and pay respect to the ones who have crossed over into the Great Dreaming. We remember them and keep the flame burning bright in their honor. The Gulf Country Frontier Days Festival is the authentic Outback Australian experience and brings together National and International musicians, Indigenous and First Nation's performers, and Australia's best cowb...oys in the heart of Queensland's Lower Gulf Country. The Festival revolves around the Medicine Circle Dance Grounds, where First Nations performers from around the world share their arts, storytelling, culture, dance, and theatre. Plus Frontier Days Rodeo and the only National Indigenous Rodeo Championships, in Australia. This APRA affiliated event is one of the richest on the Rodeo circuit and attracts Australia's top Rodeo talent to the Gulf. On opening night, First Nations cultural performers from around the world take to the stage, for dance and theatrical performance in the Kabarrijbi Wangkijbi Spectacular - The Coming Together of Nations. An experience not to be missed! Directed by Alec Doomadgee Produced by Barbara Taylor Music By Glen Skuthorpe Edited by Barbara Taylor Executive Producer Alec Doomadgee In association with Tourism Events Queensland. #thegulfcounyryfrontietdaysfestival #glenskuthorpe #alecdoomadgee #thelastfronyiertvseries #ladyinblackcreative #tourismeventsqueensland https://youtu.be/yP5NZ9_ALVY
