Fridgetown Fest
1 June - 31 August
Bridgetown’s winter festival was launched in 2011 as a way to celebrate the local Shire’s people, businesses, history and lifestyle through art, culture, music, food, exhibits and events. Originally known as the Bridgetown in the Winter Festival, the event has rebranded and undergone a name change inspired by the town’s unofficial title ‘Fridgetown’ – a cheeky reference to its frigid temperatures and status as the Winter Capital of Western Australia.
Known for cool, crisp, misty mornings, rolling green hills and the warmth of country hospitality, Bridgetown and neighbouring Greenbushes, are an ideal location to rest, relax and take in some of the winter activities on offer. For those who prefer sitting beside a roaring fire, keeping toasty, there are also plenty of restaurants and cafe’s offering warming menus and drinks accompanied by local music and entertainment.
Keep an eye on the What’s On for all the details, so that you can plan your escape to the Southwest for Fridgetown Fest!
