Featuring international artists including STAFF BENDA BILILI, THE BLACK SEEDS, TRIO JOUBRAN, DOBET GNAHORE, and BAABA MAAL, 'WOMAD: THE WORLDS FESTIVAL' also includes tracks from local favourites BLUE KING BROWN, multi-ARIA award winner GURRUMUL and the new band from CROWDED HOUSE's Neil Finn, THE PAJAMA CLUB. Since 1982, WOMAD (the World of Music, Arts and Dance) has presented exhilarating festivals in countries all over the world, consistently thrilling capacity audiences with an incredible diversity of styles that always provokes and entices. WOMAD takes us to places we don't know, reaching compass points in music that are way beyond our navigation and imagination. Each year Womadelaide welcomes 80,000 visitors. It has become the biggest World Music Festival in Australia, and will celebrate its 20th anniversary in 2012!
