Overview of this event
It was 1983 when David Bowie travelled to our tiny NSW outback town of Carinda to film his now iconic video for "Let's Dance" in the Carinda Hotel. The Australian video for the smash worldwide hit proved the perfect companion for the ground-breaking song. The bonus of the scenes filmed in Carinda and the Warrumbungle National Park created the magical backdrop for what many regards as Bowie's most distinctive and powerful video. Since that date, the pub has become a mecca for Bowie fans from all over the world, looking to stand and be photographed in the same spot where Bowie filmed his video. The town itself has now embraced this historic connection and hosts an annual "Let's Dance Carinda" festival paying tribute to and celebrating David Bowie and his remarkable music legacy.
