Cultures are maps of meaning through which the world is made intelligible.
Thank you so much for considering Tjapukai for your clients. Our philosophy is to be much more than a tourist attraction - we are working towards a world which respects its indigenous people and portrays their culture with dignity. Your clients (our guests!) will be rewarded with a memorable experience that is authentic, educational and most of all - FUN! We share with our visitors all the aspects of Aboriginal culture, from the difficult history portrayed in the History Theatre to the magic of the Dreamtime, brought dramatically to life in the Creation Theatre. Dance and music are celebrated in the Tjapukai Dance Theatre. Our guests can interact with members of the Aboriginal community in the Cultural Camp, where they learn how to throw spears and boomerangs, how to play a didgeridoo (the oldest wind instrument in the world), and how Aboriginal people survived without modern medicine. All together, the three main theatres and the camp experiences take about 2 hours. The Tjapukai and the Yirrganydji communities and their elders have approved and overseen the materials presented and they have a majority shareholding in the park, so we are able to guarantee the authenticity your discerning clients are after. As the largest private enterprise employer of Aboriginal people in the country today, we are proud role models for Aboriginal Australia. Whatever else you choose to book, remember the delicious buffet lunch served daily at the Boomerang Restaurant features modern international style cuisine with a bush food influence. The Boomerang Restaurant is almost as famous as Tjapukai! The Tjapukai Gallery, which won the national Australian Tourism Award for Retail Excellence, is also a must, with a huge range of authentic products from local Aboriginal artists.
