We are always grateful for the support that we rec

We are always grateful for the support that we receive to create events at Woodfordia - and if you've noticed an expanded programme for this Bushtime, that's partly due to Multicultural Affairs Queensland. The Taiko drumming workshop just booked out - again! - but there are so many other ways you can experience the many cultures of Queenslanders at Bushtime! Tibetan yoga, tai chi, raqs shaki dance, Middle Eastern celebratory dances, ceilis, and African dance jams, Pasefika drum and dance workshops, weaving - have a look at the workshop and stage programmes. Some - like weaving or Taiko - you need to reserve a place for, but loads of workshops you can just turn up for - bring a friend! #jinibara #greatoutdoors #bushtime #woodfordia #thisisqueensland #holidaydreaming

Troubadour Wagons: we're borrowing just a touch of their magic when the gorgeous Romi wagon comes up to Woodfordia to act as our stage nearest to Lake Gkula! And when they're not with us - they're making magic elsewhere! Have you discovered the Secret Garden gig held deep in the secluded Maroochy Bushland Botanic Garden? On the first Sunday of every month the Sculpture Garden plays host to performances by local and touring artists. From folky tunes and gritty blues to reggae vibes and sweet pop sounds, you'll discover something different at each event. BYO picnic and relax with friends and family in this unique and beautiful setting. COMING UP for Troubadour Wagons
Sunday 5 December: Bobby Longstaff + Demi Casha
Sunday 2 January: Mufassa + Nyssa Ray
Buy Tickets online: https://www.troubadourwagons.com/events And inbetween, you can find the Troubadour Wagons crew with us at #Bushtime, Jinibara Country, December 27th - January 1st. #jinibara #greatoutdoors #bushtime #woodfordia #thisisqueensland #holidaydreaming

Only one month until we throw the Folk Lore Gates

Only one month until we throw the Folk Lore Gates open to welcome Bushtime Campers! The weather looks wonderful, Lake Gkula is clean and clear, the birds are singing and the site is lush and green. We can't wait to see you onsite where so much magic has been made - Woodfordia, Jinibara Country! Beautiful image by Justin Brown. #jinibara #greatoutdoors #bushtime #woodfordia #thisisqueensland #holidaydreaming

Only one week to go until we let you know the totality of what we've planned for December's Bushtime on Jinibara Country! While the focus of Bushtime is very much on the camping experience, we know that in a week long holiday, you're going to want to see some great music, enjoy yourself at some great variety shows, maybe dabble in some art or music workshops, learn more about Woodfordia's environment - and there are wonderful artists and presenters gathering to make sure you can do just that! #oneweek #programme #launch #bushtime #woodfordia #thisisqueensland

Did you start Sunday with a song? Would you like to? The wonderful Nicole Murray, of Cloudstreet fame, joins us to create a daily choir from a rag-tag bunch of plucky misfits (that's where you come in). Join Nicole and your fellow warblers at Bushtime on Jinibara Country! #bushtime #woodfordia #thisisqueensland

Multi-award winning circus company @casuscircus ar

Multi-award winning circus company @casuscircus are visiting with 'Casus Tapas' - tasty bite-sized pieces of incredible skill and power to enjoy and share! Inclusion and diversity are at the forefront of all Casus' work, giving light and energy to stories that are often absent from our stages, or heavily stereotyped. Casus is one of the most diverse companies in Australia, with more than 70 per cent of the company non-Caucasian, and strong representation from the LGBTIQX community. Casus also subverts gender normative stereotypes, with women demonstrating strength and basing complex balances, and men exploring delicate styles and moving with intimacy and finesse. The suggested audience age is 12+ and there might be some adult themes. Welcome back to Woodfordia, Casus! We can't wait to have you along at Bushtime on Jinibara country! #bushtime #woodfordia #thisisqueensland

A point of difference in our Bushtime camps is that slowing down and means a chance to genuinely connect to the beautiful surroundings of Woodfordia - the environment, animals and sounds of silence that are so often eclipsed by our larger events. Our Bushtime workshop programme is designed with this in mind - and this December, artist @natalie_billing can show you how to create a beautiful scarf to remember your visit to Woodfordia using leaves gathered on site to print directly onto the fabric. It's totally eco – no inks or chemicals, only memories – you only need to bring your enthusiasm, everything needed is provided. The full programme and bookings will be online in the last week of November - we hope you'll find something to look forward to! #thisisqueensland #artsandcrafts #bushtime #woodfordia #makers

@tibet_effect has been at COP26 this week working to raise awareness of the climate crisis and its effects on Tibet. Always generous, always smiling - Tenzin returns to us with Nomadic song and stories at this year's Bushtime, and of course, his tradition of singing up the sun, January 1st. Perhaps we can ask Tenzin to deliver a talk about who he met and what he saw at COP26? #thisisqueensland #woodfordia #bushtime

Are you planning on bringing an instrument to Woodfordia for Bushtime? Whether it's playing around the camp, heading off to a workshop or two, or sitting in on the song and tune sessions, we're looking forward to Woodfordia the strums, songs and celebration of another year together in the slow surrounds of Bushtime. #bushtime #thisisqueensland #woodfordia

@katemillerheidke has always been a wonderful friend to Woodfordia and we are so delighted that she's choosing to spend time with us again this year at Bushtime! As well as hanging out with her family, Kate will be onstage on December 30th, hopefully bringing some old favourites along with new songs from her October release 'Child in Reverse' - holy cow, 'Deluded' is such a dreamy, fantastic catchy song. It's way more fun with Kate Miller Heidke at Bushtime! (And speaking of songs - Keir Nuttall is teaching a songwriting workshop too!) #bushtime #thisisqueensland #woodfordia
