A Traditional Smoking Ceremony is an ancient Aboriginal custom that involves burning various native plants to produce smoke, which has cleansing properties and the ability to ward off bad spirits from the people and the land.
When you see the smoking ceremony happening, it is a gift from the Traditional Owners (Goori people) of Magandjin where we gather for BIGSOUND 2022, a cultural and spiritual invitation to cleanse the past and make a pathway for a brighter future.
