Global Beats and Eats 2017

The free festival celebrates the City of Wanneroo’s diversity by showcasing an array of sights, sounds and tastes from around the world.

A host of talented musicians took centre stage. Seychelles Islander Grace Barbé opened the event with a fusion of tropical rhythms before folk duo Salt Tree, Sydneysiders Caravaňa Sun and quintet Jakubi wowed the audience with sizzling sets.

Headliners San Cisco had the crowd grooving as they belted out famous hits and new tracks from their highly anticipated upcoming album.

Tasty offerings from Perth’s best food vans kept eventgoers well fed with everything from traditional Indian to Japanese street food ensuring a host of options.

Chinese lion dancers weaved through the crowd while Polynesian hula dancers, samba drummers and colourful carnival performers delighted audiences with their high-energy performances.

Visitors learned about Aboriginal culture and art by contributing to a large Indigenous artwork and families were entertained with activities including face painting, bouncy castle, photo booth and drum making craft workshops.

Global Beats & Eats presented by LiveLighter wrapped up the City’s events for this season. Stay tuned for the announcement of next season’s events.
