Aboriginal Culture Show at Tjapukai near Karanda.

Tjapukai - Aboriginal Cultural Park
The Tjapukia Cultural Park is the only authorized presentation of Aboriginal culture in the Tjapukai Tribal area.  The Tjapukai communities and their elders have approved and overseen the materials presented in the park.

• Bush Food and Medicine Demonstration
• Spear Throwing
• Boomerang Throwing
• Tjapukai Dance Theater (above)
• Creation Theater - The spiritual and traditional beliefs of the Tjapukai people are portrayed in the theater.  The story, told in Tjapukai language, a language which has almost been lost to the world, is heard through the headset, translated into the language of your choice.  The performers interact with giant holographic and animated images, which illustrate and enhance this ancient story.
