The first corroboree in a New South Wales city in more than 150 years occurred on Saturday night, with an attendance of over 2,000 people.
The gathering in the Wagga Wagga's Marrambidya Wetlands paid respects to ancestors and to country.
Joe Williams, who helped organise the event, said the corroboree was about education and forging a relationship to move forward as one.
Yorta Yorta elder Uncle Hewitt Whyman says the corroboree had a powerful element of environmental consciousness.
He says "In this modern era we're looking at climate change, drought, what is happening to country, this corroboree is sending a message - look after country."
