Venue Focus: Fremantle Arts Centre

Answered by: Marcus Dickson (General Manager)

There’s such a vibrant creative scene in Fremantle, why do you think that is?

Fremantle has a long history, as a place where great art is made and appreciated – the whole energy of the city seems to attract creative people. The Fremantle community are also really supportive of local talent and they have quite adventurous tastes so it’s a great place for bands of all styles to have their music heard. There is fantastic, original live music happening every night in Fremantle – I urge you to get out and see some!
