Casa Musica

Enjoy a sonic sundowner with family and friends at East Perth Power Station. Casa Musica celebrates the sounds of music from across the diverse Indian Ocean rim and beyond.

Kick back to free music, get up and dance, indulge in some tasty food and drink or just people watch on the banks of the river. Inspired by the vibrant piazzas and parks of southern Europe, Casa Musica is your passport to the sounds of world-class musicians from across the Indian Ocean rim and beyond. Every Wednesday to Sunday throughout the Festival, the riverbanks come alive with music. Get up and dance, indulge in some tasty food and drinks, or simply people watch on the banks of the river.

Casa Musica kicks off with an RTRFM takeover on opening weekend. On Saturday 8 February, the iconic Jamdown Vershun celebrates 45 years of broadcasting with some of Perth’s finest dub and reggae acts. Then, on Sunday 9 February, Golden Apples of the Sun brings live sets from Peruvian maestros Kombi-A Train and more. The line-up only grows richer, with Warnindhilyagwa blues and roots singer Emily Wurramara, the dynamic rhythms of Lindigo from Réunion Island, and South Africa’s The Joy, whose powerful voices and traditional dancing will move your soul.
