| | Coogee Live is on this weekend! In case you didn't know, Coogee Live — our legendary two-day festival now in its sixth year — hits our shores this Saturday and Sunday, promising to dazzle people of all ages from around Perth with an array of local culture and arts. Crafted from the grassroots up, the Coogee Live theme this year is Metamorphosis and will see the event transform 1.2km of our pristine coastline into three major hubs to discover and explore. Think The Great Mermaid Migration, free dive and snorkel sessions, beach soccer, a pop-up forest, Xtreme Bounce, art activities, delicious food on offer, music, and lots of entertainment. And best of all? It's a free event! | | See what's on |
