The Bogong is a celebration of Blak voices, where master storytellers breathe life into words, honouring the past and shaping the future.

Inspired by the ancient gathering of Bogong moths, this event is a modern feast of poetry, performance and truth-telling. With the theme Now Is the Hour, the performers call forth the spirit of resistance, resilience and renewal through the power of spoken word. They elevate the silenced, reclaim their narratives and affirm their survival. This is more than an event, it is a movement, a fire and a heartbeat.

Join these Blak storytellers as they honour the stories that refuse to be forgotten.
