The event is brought together by DJ Kuya James, an Adelaide-born music producer, who has garnered national respect as an artist/producer.
Listeners of popular Indie radio show Triple J will be aware of DJ Kuya James as he is a regular on the show.
DJ Kuya James is no stranger to throwing elaborate, fun-filled events celebrating South East Asian culture as he brings a new flavour and spice to Darwin Festival 2020.
He did this through providing music and dance showcasing different Filipino cultures in a northern Australian context. This allowed Darwin’s Filipino community to share their talents and what they had to offer.
The same energy and dedication will be emulated and expressed through Adelaide’s Pinoy Street Party, so Adelaide residents are in for a treat.
