There’s something special about living in Perth’s northern suburbs, it’s not just the homes and the coastline, it’s the community. Local events are where neighbours become friends, where families connect, and where we’re reminded just how lucky we are to live in such a vibrant part of the world.
This month, there’s plenty happening close to home, from family-friendly festivals and live music to markets and dining experiences. Each event is a chance to support local businesses, enjoy time with loved ones, and be part of the heartbeat of our suburbs.
Our local Property Partners have rounded up their favourite events across Hillarys, Sorrento, Carine, Duncraig, Karrinyup, Currambine, Iluka, Ocean Reef and beyond — so you can make the most of your month in the community. Check them out below.
