We continue to celebrate cultural exchange with our regional neighbours through an array of moving and personal stories of cross cultural journeys, collaborations and friendships.

From the multi-dimensional documentary performance based on the true story of Chika Honda, an inspirational Indonesian journey with Jan Cornall, Daorum, a rare opportunity to see traditional Korean Pansori to Once Upon a Midnight – a new rock musical.

Film, food and design are new inclusions in the festival with the stunning OzAsia on Screen, divine Australian/Asian cuisine from Cheong Liew and Simon Bryant and Ikebana demonstrations.

Other highlights include performances suitable for families with Shaolin In Wind, The Tale of Haruk, the traditional Moon Lantern Festival, a wide-ranging visual arts program and full day symposium – an opportunity to discuss Australia’s vital relationship with Asia and the importance of cultural engagement.

See you at the 2008 OzAsia Festival.
