Perth International Arts Festival 2015

The Perth International Arts Festival 2015 (13 Feb - 7 Mar) opens in an epic spectacle of wonder with Royal de Luxe’s
The Incredible and Phenomenal Journey of the Giants to the Streets of Perth, the biggest arts event Western Australia has ever seen.
For three days over the opening weekend, the French masters of theatrical magic let loose a modern-day fable that will transform Perth forever, as 11-metre tall giants take inspiration from uniquely Western Australian stories and tour the city, commemorating the Anzac centenary.
Perth International Arts Festival is the longest-running annual multi-arts celebration in the Southern Hemisphere and the jewel in the crown of Western Australia’s cultural life.
The programme includes performing arts (opera & dance, theatre & circus, music), visual arts, film and the well-regarded
Perth Writers Festival (February 19-22).
