Wardarnji 2020 Postponed

4 November 2020 News

Following confirmation that Phase 4 restrictions will remain in place for the foreseeable future, it is with great sadness that we announce this year’s Wardarnji has been postponed. A celebration of Noongar stories, song and culture, Wardarnji attracts thousands of people to our South Lawn each year. Fremantle Arts Centre believes running the event at half capacity would drastically reduce the number of people able to celebrate this important Noongar festivity and therefore it will not take place in December as planned. Regulations permitting, Wardarnji will return bigger and better in 2021 when we can all celebrate together safely.
