EVENTS & WHAT’S ON

In Western Australia, events are more than moments on a calendar—they are catalysts for connection, culture, and commerce. Tourism WA has reaffirmed its role as a key driver of this momentum by supporting events that span sport, music, art, food, and community celebration. These initiatives reflect a strategic approach: using events not only to entertain but also to strengthen the state’s economy and global identity.

Each supported event carries with it the potential to create long-lasting impact. Major sporting fixtures position Western Australia as a host capable of drawing international audiences and competitors, while showcasing its landscapes as world-class venues. Cultural festivals and concerts amplify the state’s artistic and creative communities, inviting audiences to engage with talent that reflects both local roots and global influences. Food and wine festivals reinforce Western Australia’s reputation as a producer of quality, sustainable, and distinctive experiences, connecting visitors directly with growers, winemakers, and chefs.

The impact of Tourism WA’s support extends deep into regional communities. Smaller towns and regional centres benefit as events attract visitors who explore beyond the main stages, dining in local restaurants, staying in nearby accommodations, and discovering hidden attractions. This creates a cycle of reinvestment where tourism dollars contribute directly to community growth.

At a strategic level, supported events also help shape the global narrative of Western Australia. International coverage highlights the state not only as a travel destination but also as a vibrant, creative, and connected society. The ripple effect is significant: heightened interest from investors, increased visibility for local industries, and stronger recognition of Western Australia as a forward-looking hub.

Tourism WA’s commitment ensures that these events remain accessible, sustainable, and relevant. By aligning support with the broader vision of tourism and cultural development, the organisation is ensuring that Western Australia’s event ecosystem thrives in a way that resonates with both locals and visitors.

In essence, supported events are more than entertainment—they are expressions of Western Australian identity. They tell stories of resilience, creativity, and belonging, while opening new pathways for discovery. With Tourism WA’s backing, the state continues to transform its events into experiences that leave lasting impressions and inspire return journeys.
