Lanterns & Fire – The Story of Widhadha.
A powerful coastal performance weaving light, fire, movement, and culture.
Experience the unforgettable finale of GROUNDED Arts Festival with Lanterns & Fire – The Story of Widhadha — a large-scale outdoor performance inspired by Narungga cultural stories.
As twilight descends, we gather on the shores of Marion Bay. A glowing procession of community-made lanterns lights up the coastline, leading into a rich, immersive storytelling experience brought to life through fire, light, and sound.

Developed in collaboration with the Narungga community, local artists, school students from across the Yorke Peninsula, and community members, The Story of Widhadha is a heartfelt celebration of connection — to Country, culture, and one another
An immersive cultural and sensory journey not to be missed.

The Yorke Peninsula is the traditional lands of the Narungga (Nharangga) people, who have lived on, and cared for, this country since the beginning of time. We work, live and travel on Nharannga Banggara [Country], and we take time away from those pursuits to acknowledge and pay our deep respects to the Nharangga Elders of the past and present. 

Today, it is essential that we continue to care for and protect our spectacular natural environment. Tread lightly and leave no trace. Learn more about responsible and respectful travel on Yorke Peninsula.
