Fri 12 Jul 2019 - Sun 21 Jul 2019

In the months when Perth has heaps of sun, Fremantle is roaring and open. Their food, music, art and culture will all be back again for this festival.

In Fremantle, there is a labyrinth of stately, historic buildings and now that winter is upon us, the lights will be lit and people will frequent inside places instead of outside. Fremantle in winter is a time to discover some of the hidden nooks, to chill out with some warming food, and to sip on drinks and tell tales to your mates!

10 Nights in Port celebrates the way that the Fremantle community comes together and the city itself seems to draw us into the heart of it during the cold months.



This festival will go on for 10 cold nights and you can listen to a lot of music, go to the theatre, see visual arts, films and live performances. These will all be put on by some of Fremantle's most popular local acts and a band of international acts will also be there.

The mayor of Fremantle says that the10 Nights in Port is a time to celebrate the [i]"undeniably special character of Fremantle and the creative community whose music, performances and artworks bring us together."[/i]

During these ten days, there will be a host of activities and shows and some of them will be as follows:

This is set within a magnificent world beneath the waves! Oddysea is an immersive, multi-sensory theatre production designed for children with a disability.

This is virtually a children's' theatre with magic and is an experience that will make the child use their imagination. Oddysea is a Sensorium Theatre production and has received two Helpmann award nominations.

Soak is an outdoor experience bringing the comforts of a nice hot bath in the cold depths of winter out into the open. Those who are brave enough are able to go under, unwind and watch the passers-by go by in the midst of Fremantle's magnificent beach, park or riverfront spaces.

This is presented by local artist and environmental guru Jesse Lee and it is a champagne bath which has never been so scenic before!
