Melanesia 2000 was the first festival of Melanesian arts, first held in
Noumea, New Caledonia in September 1975, supported by Jean-Marie Tjibaou.[1] It had its origins in the women's association, Smiling Melanesian Village Women's Groups which was formed in 1971 and advocated the idea of a cultural festival to promote Kanak arts.[2]
