what are PNGs festivals?
PNG Festivals are similar to events held in any other country of the world. i.e. Melbourne has Moomba, Brisbane has the Ekka, there is a Gay Mardi Gra in Sydney, Canberra has the Summer Nats, etc. Obviously PNG Festivals have a PNG flavour. Some of the PNG festivals are the Canoe Festival, Warwigra and Mask Festival, Orchid Show, Hiri Moale, Milamala Yam Festival, and of course most provinces have some form of cultural show. Many cultural shows are held near and sometimes combined with PNG Independence on the 16th of September. Due to funding issues it is best to check that an event is actually going to be on before travelling.
