The Australian Body Art Festival is being held in Eumundi where it all began. The event has been held since 2009 (in Cooroy from 2017 – 2021), in Eumundi from 2009 to 2015 and it has been a fantastic success with amazing feedback from artists, models, community, sponsors and spectators and steady growth each year we which expect to continue. The 2020 event was cancelled due to COVID-19 shutdowns and the 2021 event was held under limited attendance levels, but it will return to the full event loved by all in 2024.
The festival is Australia’s premier body art event, attracting artists and spectators from across Australia and overseas to compete over two days in front of over 9,000 spectators! In addition to the extraordinary body art, visitors can expect a feast of other entertainment including wearable art, street performers, fabulous food and market stalls, and music to groove to. There are also parades at the completion of each day. The event is a community event run by volunteers and is free to attend for spectators.
The 2024 Australian Body Art Festival will be held on Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 April at the Eumundi Amphitheatre and will be a “Festival of Colour” drawing together cutting-edge artists from around the country, who will create masterpieces before your eyes using the human body as their inspiration – and canvas.
