Leempeeyt Weeyn Festival winds up
An ancestral camp fire ceremony at Federation Square on August 20 marked the end of Leempeeyt Weeyn Festival.
One man played the didgeridoo and other two danced around during the last moments of a fire that warmed CBD locals and visitors at the 15-day aboriginal festival.
Visitors and locals enjoyed the performance by indigenous artists.
