Open your gathering with a heartfelt Aboriginal Welcome to Country, resonant didgeridoo and traditional Jumoo smoking ceremony – all led by a recognised Custodian and offered without a dance component. In just 10–25 minutes, the cleansing eucalyptus smoke and ancestral melodies set a respectful, uplifting tone, inviting guests onto Country with a clear, positive path forward.

A culturally grounded Welcome to Country to open your event in the right way—acknowledging Country, setting respectful intent, and bringing people together with clarity and warmth. Aunty Sandra King is a Brisbane-born Elder woman of Yagara ancestry and is based in South East Queensland.
