    Australia’s Biggest UFO Celebration Returns to Cardwell in 2026 Encounters Down Under is sitting down with Thea Ormonde, the founder and organiser behind the ever-growing festival phenomenon. The discussion will cover everything visitors can expect from the 2026 event, the continued growth of UFO and UAP interest across Australia, and why Cardwell has become one of the country’s most fascinating hubs for unexplained phenomena. The skies above Far North Queensland are set to come alive once again as the annual Australian UFO Festival returns to beautiful Cardwell in August 2026. Widely regarded as Australia’s only dedicated UFO festival, the event continues to attract researchers, experiencers, paranormal enthusiasts, families, and curious minds from across the country. The 2025 festival proved to be a huge success, bringing together speakers, experiencers, researchers, and the wider community for a weekend packed with cosmic conversation and entertainment. Highlights from the 2025 festival included: The popular C-Files Forum featuring guest speakers discussing UFO sightings, UAP investigations, paranormal encounters, and unexplained mysteries.
