Every culture has a journey to a destination. In Australia around October people gather in Cairns.

Late October marks the beginning of the Gathering in Cairns, Including events such as Illumination, SolarFX Gathering and the Cairns Music Convention, the gathering is also the beginning of a trek of an over 4,000km, multi festival trek down the east coast of Australia.

Bought to you through the combined efforts of Illumination, SolarFX, Middle Haven Maya Solstice, Confest, Freakreation, Rainbow Serpent, Maitreya, Circuitree, The Ultimate Trance Trek is truly a unique nomadic existence covering the entire Australian Summer.

A summer where Australians are soon joined by the Japanese, Israelis arrive and a European contingent all adding their unique cultural flavours to one of the great journeys of our time.

On the way experience the best Australia has to offer on the festival circuit, the best festivals, the best acts, some of the most amazing art and most of all the craziest, funnest people on the planet.
