Kimberley Whale Festival 2010 - Broome 17 & 18 July




Planning is already underway for the 2010 Kimberley Whale Festival, to be held in Broome on the 17th and 18th of July 2010.  Last year's one day festival was such a success that we've extended this year's festival to cover a weekend, with some exciting events  in the week leading up.

New events for 2010 include an adults' art exhibition with a Kimberely Marine Theme, a boab nut carving competition, and a short film festival.

Kimberley Whale Festival 2009

Join us in Broome on the 7th of June to celebrate the arrival of the world's largest population of Humpback whales.

Beginning on Cable Beach, we will form a life-sized human whale for an aerial photograph. Listen to whale song, have your face painted, and stake out your own whale tail for our IFAW whale tail project, and be photographed for "Tails for Whales" to help protect Humpback whales. View your photos on our web site.

Join us at the Boulevarde Shopping Centre for thechildrens' whale art competition, and adults' whale photography competition, both with great prizes.

In the afternoon, join us for a fish cake cook-off at Matso's with wonderful prizes, a sausage sizzle, Sunday Session music, and finally a picnic, wildlife and whale films on the grass at Cable Beach.

A great family day out!
