traditional Aboriginal Ceremonies

Traditional Aboriginal dance and ceremonies are a significant aspect of Indigenous culture in Australia. The professional performing arts group Minjil offers a range of tailored services designed to cater to the requirements and budgets of our clients.

Our cultural authentic services include:

• Welcome to Country Ceremonies - Tailored to suit each individual event. Available only in Cairns out of respect for other tribes.
• Cultural Tours - Tours around aboriginal lands to teach clients about aboriginal lands and customs.
  

Minjil combines song, rituals, costume and elaborate body decoration. Ceremonial dress varies from region to region and includes body paint, brightly coloured feathers from birds and ornamental coverings.

Our ceremonies teach particular aspects of traditional Aboriginal lore, spiritual beliefs and survival skills of our people. Minjil Artistic Director, Carl Fourmile has been sharing Aboriginal culture for over 20 years. He is recognised as a cultural ambassador for Cairns.
