On the event, organiser Andrew Devine says: “With the easing of restrictions, the past year has made us think about how we format these events. It’s so important to nurture the local talent we have in the city and give them the platform to grow as artists in their own right.”
“We want to ensure we’re properly representing not only the lineage of the culture that we love but also making sure that the future is in very safe hands. We have to move forward, always.”
