“In an incredibly challenging environment – due to the recent conflict in the Middle East – the logistical challenges of bringing such a large and diverse program of artists from around the globe to Adelaide have been immense. We are deeply grateful to our team and the hundreds of artists who have persevered to find the combination of new routes and flights to ensure these extraordinary performances reach us. At a time like this, WOMADelaide – as the world’s festival, reflecting the world as we would all hope it can be – is more important than ever.” — Ian Scobie AM, Festival Director, WOMADelaide
