CIAF 2027 Application

CIAF invites applications from performers for the 2027 Cairns Indigenous Art Fair program.

CIAF invites artists and groups to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) to present as part of its program. We are interested in hearing about existing, performance-ready and experimental works, as well as innovative contemporary practices that explore new creative possibilities.

This EOI helps CIAF understand the creative work being developed across Queensland and Australia and identify opportunities for future programming.

Please provide as much information as possible when completing the form. If you have any questions or require an alternative application process, please contact the CIAF team.

Please note: Submission of an EOI does not guarantee selection or inclusion in the CIAF program.

Expressions of Interest Open: 16 September 2026
Expressions of Interest Close: 16 November 2026
Applicants notified of outcome: 7 December 2026

If you have any questions while completing your Expression of Interest, please contact the Cairns Indigenous Art Fair:
