now in its sixth edition, nyx festival is a multi-day underground arts, music, and culture event held on a rural station property in far north queensland, roughly 25 minutes from ravenshoe near innot hot springs. the site is a camping festival set around the winter solstice, running across four days with an afterparty held separately at a coastal venue the following weekend.

the event positions itself within australia's broader underground electronic and arts festival scene, drawing on the tropical landscape of the wet tropics hinterland rather than the temperate bush settings more common to southern australian doofs. arts and culture programming sit alongside the music across the multi-day format.
