The Wawi Festival is set to become an annual cultural event you will not want to miss!

It made its debut earlier this week in Wagga, hosting a week-long cultural festival celebrating local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture through storytelling, art, music, dance, native food and bush tucker, performances and cultural workshops.

The Wollundry Lagoon will come to life on the final day of the festival for the Wawi Cultural Day.

Suitable for all ages, this free community event is guaranteed to be a highlight of your Spring.
