Inspired by the Noongar tradition of lighting fires to greet and guide visitors, each beacon is a campfire, a glowing symbol of welcome, warmth, safety and inclusivity. See them light up the night for the duration of the Festival, welcoming you to be part of something truly extraordinary.
No tickets, no theatre seats – just the sky and the beautiful riverbank. Witness these captivating beacons from afar or journey down to the water’s edge and immerse yourself in a unique blend of light sculptures and soundscapes designed specifically for this place.
