Set your senses alight at EverNow

The spectacular annual celebration EverNow is returning to Boorloo/Perth this October to ignite our senses during the wildflower season of birth, new life and renewal.

EverNow– a festival during Kambarang – will light up iconic city locations with a series of brilliant displays and performances reflecting WA’s unique environment and culture from 3–7 October.

EverNow 2024 welcomes back the immersive walk-through wonderland Boorna Waanginy: The Trees Speak in Kings Park and a fresh production of Song Circle, the mesmerising showcase of Noongar songs and dance. Extra EverNow programming will be announced soon.

Boorna Waanginy: The Trees Speak is an immersive after-dark journey through the spectacular Kings Park and Botanic Gardens, in which the trees come alive to “speak” of stories of this land, this Noongar Boodjar, through projected animation, sound, spoken word and song. This is a free, non-ticketed event.

Song Circle is a Noongar-led futurescape showcases musicians on a revolving raised stage surrounded by dancers on a ring of sand. Audiences are invited to enjoy Noongar-language songs reflecting animals and environments from Perth through to the South Coast. This is a free, non-ticketed event.

The return of EverNow follows its inaugural success in 2023 as a home-grown signature event grounded firmly on Noongar Boodjar and inspired by our State’s rich biodiversity and creativity.

EverNow invites visitors and locals alike to light up their senses, reconnect with Country and celebrate the magic and wonder of Western Australia over one amazing, extended weekend.

Previous major free events produced by Perth Festival include Place Des Anges (2012), The Giants (2015), Boorna Waanginy: The Trees Speak (2017 and 2019), Highway to Hell (2020) and High Voltage (2023).

At EverNow 2024 audiences can look forward to celebrating Kambarang together as a community with an extraordinary weekend of unique and accessible, free family-friendly events.
