About Skydance
Skydance Festival is the culmination of a deep longing to return to the transformative potential of the boutique festival experience. We value the festival experience for its innate ability to forge strong communities, transcend society’s mediocrity, and bring a deeper meaning to our lives.
Grounded in Kamilaroi country, we aim to craft a uniquely immersive music and arts experience that facilitates freedom of expression and lights the fire of inspiration. Think fresh mountain air, panoramic views, and one of nature’s most unique dancefloors.

Our Values
1. Connection To Country
Aboriginal Australians are part of the world’s oldest civilization. We embrace the rich history of spirituality and culture that our Indigenous brothers and sisters are part of. We acknowledge and pay respects to the Kamilaroi people, the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we gather, and we pay respects to their Elders, past, present and emerging.
2. Community
At Skydance we gather not as strangers, but as kindred spirits. We come together to celebrate the music that moves us, the experiences that connect us, and the shared sense of wonder that ignites our souls. Skydance is a space for you connection, for forging new friendships, and for deepening the bonds we already share.
3. Generosity
Generosity is the rhythm of the universe. It’s the act of giving without expecting anything in return, a ripple of kindness that expands outward, touching everyone it encounters. Imagine a place where sharing is as natural as breathing.
4. Self Expression
Self Expression isn’t just a concept here—it’s a guiding principle. Step outside the norm, delve into your creative depths, and showcase your story to the world. Skydance invites you to unleash your authentic creative spirit and celebrate the joy of being unapologetically you.
5. Growth
We believe that by exchanging ideas, culture, and perspectives we unlock the potential for transformative growth. Skydance is a platform where every interaction offers us a chance to broaden our horizons, challenge our assumptions, and deepen our understanding of ourselves and the world around us.
