International Events in Perth |
This vibrant city of Perth is ideally Western Australia's capital for the arts, craft, culture and entertainment. Home to some major arts and cultural attractions, it is known all over the world for hosting some of the biggest festivals and events under the sun. Want an insight into the extraordinarily rich traditional indigenous culture of contemporary Western Australian? Be here during any of the International Events in Perth, and you will get an experience to savor for all your life.
The International Event Guide of Melbourne is so exhaustive that it is literally difficult for a visitor to fit in all of them at one go. Even the local Events and Festivals of Perth are celebrated in such massive scales that they sometimes put real big international ones to shame! The major International Events in Melbourne can broadly be classified into three categories- Arts, Sports and General.
Perth being regarded as a major cultural hub of not only Australia but also of the world at large, it is visited by all art connoisseurs from different corners of the globe. The gaiety reaches its pinnacle during the International Arts Festival of Perth, the biggest of all International Events in Perth, Western Australia. Running since 1953, the event showcases every thinkable art form including dance, music, theatre, and film in a series of events. Attended by over 300,000 visitors each year, this is in true sense a festival of festivals.
In 2008 summer, the extravaganza is going to take place from 8th February to 2nd March.
Lotterywest Skyworks is another name that claims a special place in the list of Perth International Festivals. It is actually a celebration in ode to Australia's national day. Bring your family to the Perth Water foreshore, and get to witness the biggest fireworks display of the year. It will feature events like:
- Survival Concert
- Langley Park
- Air and Water Show
