The City of Vincent welcomes everyone again to their yearly community event Summer Concerts . Every year the City of Vincent presents free family friendly nights of entertainment to help bring the community together through music and film. This year they are sure to live up to and soar beyond expectations to entertain.

So why not get the family together, grab a blanket and bring along a picnic dinner and enjoy the evenings of music and film from local Western Australian Artists. This is not just a family event, so if you don't have children you can still enjoy the night with a great group of friends or have a romantic night with a partner.

Banks Reserve > Joel Terrace, Mount Lawley
5.30pm - late



I personally cannot wait until the 17th February for the screening of the local short films. I myself was unsuccessful in my application process but seeing who the winners were that I was up against, I can see why I missed out and seeming I am still so early in my career, there is always next time. The two short films I am looking forward to in particular are 'Blue Darg' that is directed by one of my film lecturers Burleigh Smith and 'Leederville' that was directed by Rubin Pracas who I have worked with previously and has recently produced the television show support film students ' Student Shorts ' on WTV.

Don't forget, this is a free event so what do you have to lose?
