Rainbow Serpent Festival
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Rainbow Serpent Festival is a large electronic music, art and lifestyle festival, located in Victoria, Australia. It is considered by some one of the best festivals in the world[1].
The festival is mainly known for Psychedelic trance music, but also features other genres of electronic music and non electronic music in the smaller stages. The festival also has many art installations, work shops and other attractions.
The name Rainbow Serpent comes from the Aboriginal dreamtime creation myth of the Rainbow Serpent.
The festival occurs on the Australia Day long weekend. January 2007 was the 10th year celebration. The more recent festivals have been held on farmland in the vicinity of Beaufort, Victoria.
