A CONTROVERSIAL neo-Nazi music festival will be held in Brisbane this year, drawing white supremacists from around the world.
Federation of Ethnic Communities' Councils of Australia chairman Pino Migliorino said the festival was the work of a "lunatic fringe" and he was concerned about the underlying message of the festival.
"It's an appalling set of beliefs that they have," he said.
"The reality is a great majority of Australians are not racist and are comfortable with cultural and linguistic diversity."
