Get ready to light up Rockhampton!

Luminous in the Regions returns to Rockhampton, and we are excited to invite communities to be part of this festival, in which we celebrate our cultural diversity.

One of the key elements of this parade is that our community illuminates the sky with the spectacular handmade lanterns they crafted. 

This parade fosters welcoming spaces and a sense of belonging for new Queenslanders. It promises to be an unforgettable experience filled with magnificent lanterns, and food from around the world.

The event is part of Taste of the World Cultural Festival and is organised by Central Queensland Multicultural Association and Rockhampton City Council and supported by Multicultural Australia and Multicultural Affairs Qld.

  • Date: Saturday, the 23rd of August
  • Time: 1:00 pm to 8:00 pm
  • Location: Rod Laver Plaza Riverside Park, Quay Street, Rockhampton

LUMINOUS in the Regions is produced by Central Queensland Multicultural Association and supported by our proud partners Queensland Government.

Multicultural Australia acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land on which we meet today.
As the world’s oldest living cultures, we recognise that Australia always has been and always will be Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander land.
We who come from many places pay our respects to Elders throughout all time and commit to learning from the knowledge, traditions, stories, spirituality, and experiences of Aboriginal people as we learn to live on their land.
We walk together in solidarity of the pain of the past, and in shared hope for the future.
