Nimbin History

Over the 30 years since the Aquarius Festival and the subsequent changes to the region, Nimbin has become an icon of Australian cultural history. So many of the values held then are now part of our Australian way of life. People from all over the world gathered here and shared a spirit, commonly expressed, “from our hearts, through our hands, for the earth…all the world together!”. Under threat of war, Aquarius sought the pathways of peace and the new settlers who ‘recycled the town’ lived with their hearts on show. Aquarius, a true Rainbow Gathering, was perhaps the first Australian event that sought permission from the Traditional Owners, Bundjalung People, for the use of the land.
The formation of co-operative communities in Nimbin made legal history as the first ever application of group title ownership of land, leading to affordable home ownership and lifestyle choices for thousands of people. Possibly this freedom has unleashed great human potential – our region hosts one of the world’s largest ever gatherings of artists and healers.

 

Undoubtedly our greatest achievement so far was the rescue of the Big Scrub rainforest. The battle for Terania Creek in 1979 was possibly the first time in human history that a community stood up against “progress” and won. As a result the government declared a ‘no rainforest logging’ policy for our whole state – the world’s first government legislation to protect rainforest.

Freedom has a lot to offer and Nimbin freely offers a wealth of experience…especially if you search a little deeper. Nimbin can help you face your dreams, and find yourself…and maybe your community? It’s that kind of magic country.
