Australian UFO Festival

Cardwell Jetty Plaza

The Australian UFO Festival is Australia's only dedicated celebration of the unexplained, held annually in the coastal town of Cardwell, Queensland. This four-day event brings together science, culture, creativity, and community in a truly unique experience. Festival highlights include thought-provoking talks at the C-Files Forum, the Stories in the Stars exhibition exploring Indigenous astronomy, and immersive cultural tours led by Girramay Traditional Owners. Families can enjoy the vibrant Monster Market Day, while live music and entertainment ignite the foreshore at the Alien Invasion Party. Attracting locals, interstate visitors, and international enthusiasts, the festival offers an unforgettable journey of discovery, wonder, and connection set against the stunning backdrop of the Cassowary Coast.
