Hi, I'm coming to Australia in about 2 weeks and although I'm going to spend my first couple of weeks in Melbourne where I have quite a lot of family, I would quickly like to get out of the city and begin travelling with some alternative groups like the Rainbow gatherings. I travel with different festivals and camps in England that I help organise, set up, and teach at and hope to do much the same in Oz. I've been told that I should head up to Byron Bay and Nimbin in order to get in touch with the Rainbow family. Are there any gatherings happening soon? Does any body have any advice? Lots of love, Fagin.
You could attend the next Sydney Confest that takes place at the end of the month. It is much smaller that the main one that happens at new year this time at Moulamein. http://www.dte.org.au/sydney/ Also check the sticky thread on Regular Alternative Gatherings.http://hipforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=104245
