The Fremantle International Street Arts Festival, renowned for its eclectic array of talented street performers, is on again this year, providing wonderful entertainment to all who venture into the streets of Freo over the Easter long weekend – from Good Friday to Easter Monday.
In its 21st year, the Festival is always fun and always free. Make sure you get along. And take the whole family with you. Pop-up bars will be found around the streets of Freo.
This year’s Festival promises 28 international performers from 10 different countries, including France, Switzerland, USA and China.
You can expect to be blown away by shows never seen here before, as well as returning performances.
Some of this year’s entertainers not to be missed include:
- Cho Kairin, an award-winning and death-defying performance by the ‘King of Chinese Acrobats’ who will bring a lifetime of acrobatic mastery that will thrill and surprise Fremantle – appearing here for the very first time.
- The Space Cowboy, back by popular demand. One of the most innovative Sword Swallowers alive today, The Space Cowboy will bring shock and amazement to the streets of Freo.
- Nuptial Ropes, a burlesque wedding performance, with a foolish charm. Hailing from Switzerland, this couple performs a modern circus act that combines physical theatre, acrobats and mime.
- Bug n’ Buzz presents what may look like an ordinary café terrace to you, but is a playground for Bug n’ Buzz! Buzz which transforms cutlery, glassware, and tabletops into musical instruments with endless sample loops to create a soundscape for Bug to dance her way robotically through and around, in this infectious and innovative concordance.
