EVENT INFO
Rabbits Eat Lettuce is a place of Freedom, Love & Dance Music. Camp in a beautiful natural environment and form a community of like-minded souls who want to escape the hustle and bustle of the city life. Rabbits Eat Lettuce lets us be human again. We can dissolve the social barriers and dance together.
Rabbits Eat Lettuce began in 2008 as a Tribal Easter party and has become an underground tradition stretching up & down the East Coast of Australia. Long lost brothers and sisters travel from far and wide to reconnect, to dance, share stories, socialize and camp out under the stars.
The event has grown a lot since it’s humble beginnings as a forest dance party but still holds the same essence of freedom and unique mystery it started with. Rabbits Eat Lettuce is a unique transformational sensory experience, far beyond any ordinary festival. It is a Magical World of adventure & self discovery, where every nook and cranny is primed for connection, for wonder, and for fun to happen! It’s a wild party with friends old and new, where you leave feeling invigorated, inspired and better than when you arrived.
