The festival features an impressive program of events and experiences jampacked into the month of July.

Awe-inspiring entertainment and creative performances will take place in public spaces, shopping malls and laneways to bring the city to life.

City of Perth Chair of Commissioners Eric Lumsden said Winter Fest would create a vibrant, culturally-inspired city as the temperature dropped.

“Perth city will come alive in July as visitors and residents discover new events and experiences,” he said.

“Far from going into hibernation, the city will be buzzing with activities to warm the hearts and minds of little ones and adults alike.”

From enthralling theatrical acts to comedic story-telling, a giant ball pit and cosy movie screenings, there’s plenty to delight and entice.

There’s also a chance to discover kids’ workshops and intimate live performances under a 12-metre wide dome, brightly coloured laneways, surprise music events and beautifully falling snow.

So why not rug up and step out? Warm up with your city this Winter Fest.
