Only corroborees that were recorded can be represented, such that these are often those witnessed by and/or performed for colonists and other audiences. Their distribution therefor reflects colonial presence rather than the distribution of corroborees.
The final rehearsal of the Jubilee corroboree was held at the rear of the Cairns Electric Power House. Hundreds of onlookers were interested.
