We’ve had quite a spate of wonderful festivities this month in Perth. Last week, we had the Festival of Lights and Fremantle Festival, while this weekend it’s the hip and happening Beaufort Street Festival.
You will want to head down to Beaufort Street, Mount Lawley to catch all the action. Held this Saturday 17th November, the Beaufort Street Festival will run from 12pm to 9pm. It’s an event that is high on community spirit and family fun and fast becoming one of the most popular festivals around town each year.
Now in its third season, the festival gets bigger and better every year thanks to the organisers – the community run Beaufort Street Network . This year it stretches from Lincoln Street, Highgate, through to Queens Crescent (north of Walcott Street).
The program for this year boasts an action packed line up of events, things to do, art, music , fashion, wine and food for the family to enjoy.

The golden glow of the lights in the foyer of the State Theatre Centre of WA in Perth beckoned last night as my better half and I looked forward to attending the performance of Managing Carmen co-produced by Black Swan State Theatre Company and the Queensland Theatre Company.
We seated ourselves comfortably before the show, and enjoyed the ambiance and beautiful wooden interior of the Heath Ledger Theatre as we watched the audience arrive at a steady pace before show time.

Hillarys Boat Harbour, a popular marina and attraction located 23 kilometres north of Perth, where both locals and visitors hang out.
Hillarys is great for shopping, dining, keeping the kids entertained at the playground or beach, or just catching a sea breeze at the marina.
Many of the cafes and restaurants such as Zing Cafe and The Breakwater Tavern have sweeping views of the marina, and make a great place to just chill out and relax with family and friends.
