Yandarra, meaning ‘Coming Together’, is RivMed’s annual flagship community event, bringing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families and the wider community together for a huge day celebrating culture, connection, health, wellbeing and community.

This year, Yandarra will be headlined by Gomeroi artist Kobie Dee, one of the exciting voices in Australian hip hop. Known for his powerful storytelling and strong connection with young people and community, Kobie has performed alongside artists including Briggs, Jessica Mauboy, Nooky and BARKAA, and has taken his music to stages across Australia and internationally.

The day will also feature appearances from established Indigenous football players, giving young people the opportunity to meet and engage with some inspiring sporting role models, with names to be announced.

Jack Mission Oval will come alive with cultural performances, amusement rides, sporting activities, kids’ entertainment, interactive experiences, free food and refreshments, alongside Aboriginal organisations, health providers and community services.

More than just a great family day out, Yandarra creates a relaxed and welcoming environment where community can celebrate culture, spend time together and connect with services and support.

With entertainment for all ages and plenty more still to be announced, Yandarra is all about what its name represents- coming together.

Everyone is welcome!
