Since this favourite Tasmanian Festival was established in 2013, it has grown into a highlight of the national winter arts calendar. At the close of last year, however, Dark Mofo announced that it would be pushing the pause button, thanks to rising costs and a need to ‘reset’.
Dark Mofo Artistic Director Chris Twite said: ‘This year, by taking a fallow year, we are taking a crucial step in ensuring that Dark Mofo continues to be a catalyst for artistic innovation, cultural dialogue and shared experiences for many years to come.
‘While the festival rests in 2024, the solstice does not, and we are excited to gather once more to present two popular pillars of the Tasmanian midwinter, along with some exceptional extra events,’ he added.
