Lightwave is an annual winter arts festival celebrating ‘people and place’ across Turrakana Tasman Peninsula. Lightwave fosters community connection and collective warmth in the darkness of winter by taking the phenomenon of light as the catalyst for the festival’s multi-artform programme.

Lightwave presents three days of music and art events in and around Nubeena. The main event features live music, contemporary light-based art, delicious food, and community warmth and is a free, all ages community festival.

Full programme released early June 2025.
