Event expressions of interest

The City of Wanneroo runs community events all-year round. From neighbourhood festivals to large cultural celebrations, these events bring people together through music, dance, food, markets and activities.

We invite local performers, food vendors, market stallholders, cultural providers and community groups to get involved and help make these events a success.

Why get involved in City events

Being part of a City of Wanneroo event is more than just a stall or a performance — it’s a chance to contribute to the life of our community and:

  • Showcase your talent or business to thousands of eventgoers across the year
  • Build connections with residents, visitors and other community groups
  • Celebrate and share culture by bringing diversity, stories and traditions to the stage or marketplace
  • Support community spirit by helping create welcoming, inclusive events for all ages
  • Grow your profile through participation in well-promoted, high-profile City events

Who can apply

We welcome applications from:

  • Performers and artists – musicians, dancers, buskers, entertainers
  • Food trucks and market stalls – vendors providing food, drinks or handmade goods
  • Community groups and not-for-profits – sporting clubs, charities or groups keen to fundraise or run activities
  • Cultural activity providers – artists or workshop hosts sharing cultural heritage
