Telethon Family Festival at Yagan Square

Yagan Square will be transformed into a magical Fairytale Wonderland as part of the 2024 Telethon Family Festival taking place across the Perth CBD on October 20.

Inspired by beloved fairytale stories visitors will explore the magic of Cinderella and Prince Charming’s Silent Disco unlock their creativity with Alice in Wonderland potion making embark on an excitement-fuelled Peter Pan Treasure Hunt with Captain Hook and more.

A special treat for the young at heart will be a real-life mermaid/merman show with the chance to meet the mermaids when they surface for a break.

The all-inclusive event – part of the 57th annual Telethon Weekend – is a highlight on Perth’s annual event calendar – creating an inclusive event fostered around bringing joy and connection to families and children. Entry to the Telethon Family Festival is free for all ages.
