“It’s a Mob thing” health music festivals are a set of community-led events for mob by mob that enable First Nations communities to take health promotion and messaging into their own hands, whilst also supporting local First Nations musicians, artists, businesses and health organisations. 

Our Events

It’s a Mob Thing is a unique festival that combines health promotion and health workshops at an all First Nations line up music festival.

We focus on Mob (First Nations peoples), but open to all to attend and check out the deadly Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists performances and learn all about your and your communities’ health.
