QPAC

We pay our respects to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ancestors of this land, their spirits and their legacy. The foundations laid by these ancestors give strength, inspiration and courage to current and future generations, both First Nations and non-First Nations peoples, towards creating a better Queensland.

Thank you for celebrating Clancestry 2026 with us.

From 30 July to 8 August, QPAC came alive with First Nations storytelling, music, dance, art and culture, bringing audiences together across our stages and the Festival Ground on South Bank’s Cultural Forecourt.

Proudly curated and led by First Nations people, Clancestry celebrates identity, connection and cultural continuity, providing a platform for established and emerging First Nations artists to share their stories and talents.

Clancestry will return in 2028. In the meantime, QPAC will continue to champion First Nations artists and present incredible First Nations works and experiences throughout the year.

Relive some of the moments from Clancestry 2026 below and follow QPAC First Nations to stay connected with First Nations news and events.
