The secret is out…  Beaufort Street is no longer just a haven for locals – it’s everyone’s favourite strip to dine and drink. Home to many of Perth's most cherished venues from cheerful cafes to prestigious fine dining, clubs, pubs and small bars – Beaufort Street is foodie heaven.

On the day of the Festival there will be a maze of food stalls to wander through purchasing plates of tasty morsels and samples from street vendors. From pans of paella, street bars and pizzas to Souvlaki, curries, cheese platters, fresh oysters and more! Gobble and guzzle your way down Beaufort Street in the sunshine.

Beaufort Street's best will battle it out on stage with our Banana Bread Bake Off and Barista Competitions. Keep an eye out for our official program and cheer on your favorite barista and cafe on the day.

Arrive ravenous!

In the lead up the Festival we’ve organised a plethora of tantalising food events including:
