Perth Festival 2026 is set to take over the city from February 6 to March 1, bringing music, theatre, art and unforgettable experiences to venues all across Perth.

As Australia’s longest-running multi-arts festival, Perth Festival is celebrating its 73rd year with a huge program of 108 events, and around a third of them completely free. From major international and Australian artists to local favourites, the festival is all about filling the city with creativity, energy and moments you won’t find anywhere else.

The East Perth Power Station becomes the heart of the festival, hosting headline performances, free live music, and large-scale events by the river, while other venues across the city transform into spaces for theatre, dance, film and immersive art. Expect world premieres, outdoor performances, late-night shows and plenty of reasons to plan a few nights out.

Whether you’re dipping in for a free riverside session or locking in tickets to a must-see show, Perth Festival 2026 is a chance to experience the city at its most vibrant.
