CIAF 2019 - Cairns Indigenous Art Fair

The annual Cairns Indigenous Art Fair is a huge celebration of heritage and culture that draws in tens of thousands of visitors each year. Held over four days, Cairns Indigenous Art Fair brings the streets of Cairns to life with a colourful program of free and ticketed events, and there isn’t a better reason to be in Far North Queensland this July.

CIAF connects community and heritage like no other event in Australia, with a special focus on art, Indigenous culture and live performance. This year’s program is overflowing with music and dance, art workshops, market stalls and more, all of which will take over Cairns citywide in between an unmissable Opening Night Celebration and Closing Ceremony.

The theme for Cairns Indigenous Art Fair 2019 is “My Yarn Now”, which will inspire a whole host of public artwork from renowned Indigenous artists from all over the country. Immerse yourself in stunning Indigenous art at the Art Fair, then take the chance to purchase unique artwork at this year’s Art Market, which will have over 40 high-quality stalls.

Throughout CIAF 2019 and at locations including Cairns Cruise Liner Terminal, Lake Streets and Corner Wharf - which will lay the grounds for the Main Stage - don’t miss out on a thrilling entertainment program for all ages, which will involve back-to-back live music and dance from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander performers. The 2019 Opening Night Celebration and Closing Ceremony are also not to be missed for live music and dance, as well as explosive evening firework displays that will start and end 2019’s event in spectacular fashion.

Witness the incredible atmosphere in Cairns when Cairns Indigenous Art Fair returns near our Cairns accommodation on July 11 to July 14.
