This land is Wurundjeri land - always was and always will be.

The River Folk Festival acknowledges the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation, the traditional custodians of the lands around Warburton, members of the oldest living culture in the world. We pay our deepest respects to the Elders past, present and emerging, and to all first people of this, and all lands.
