Deniliquin Ute Muster/Play on the Plains Festival
Match Box Projects Yute (more of Yute can be seen on works and projects pages)
We recently created and presented work for our People Make Places: Deniliquin series at the Deniliquin Ute Muster, one of the largest national rural themed festivals in Australia. Over 18 000 people came together to celebrate the Ute and Australian culture.
Utes come in from all over the country, and boy are they prepared.
People spent days in their utes before the event even started. They lined up on the side of the road and camped out to make sure they got a great position to set up at the festival. The traffic jam at 6am on opening day was phenomenal.
We met so many wonderful characters.
Every year they have a blue singlet world record attempt. Unfortunately they were not successful in breaking the records this year, but it was an amazing attempt, especially considering the wet and muddy conditions.
Mateship was every where

The ultimate utes
Utes come from all over the country to enter various ute competitions.
Meant a lot of fun, but mud galore.
There were mud fights happening everywhere.
The rain did not stop 1000s coming out for the evening concerts
