Bring a picnic and gather at sunset to experience the river’s edge at Dyoondalup/Point Walter as you’ve never seen it before – a living canvas where sound, image and movement intertwine to reveal the history and significance of this remarkable place.

Welcome to a cultural gathering that belongs to this place, to this community and to everyone who comes to sit here.
 
Nitja (Noongar for here) is a free outdoor event that invites us all to come together on the banks of the Derbarl Yerrigan at Dyoondalup/Point Walter. For one night only this iconic site is transformed into a place of celebration and connection, as Country and community are honoured through a tapestry of live music, storytelling, dance and projected animation.

Led by visionary artist Ian Moopa Wilkes, Nitja brings together an extraordinary collective of First Nations artists and performers to share stories both contemporary and deeply rooted in tradition.
