Thousands of First Nations people converged on Shepparton on Saturday for a music festival headed by some of Australia’s most prominent Indigenous performers treatydayout

The Treaty Day Out was headlined by Gunditjmara-Bundjalung artist Archie Roach, Shepparton’s hometown hero Briggs, north-east Arnhem Land’s Yothu Yindi and popular electronic dance duo Electric Fields. Aboriginal reggae-rock group No Fixed Address also performed earlier in the day.

“We said we would go big, we said we’d go Blak and we said we’d go live. Who said Treaty doesn’t make economic sense? We’ve just sold out Shepparton,” he said.Assembly “It’s great to see our community having the conversations about Treaty and getting organised because that’s what self-determination is all about — having Aboriginal people in the driver’s seat,” said Ms Atkinson.
