Manjaree Music | SANCTUARY 25, Fremantle Biennale

22 October 2025
The Fremantle Biennale is held every two years in the Nyoongar season of Kambarang (November). The next Fremantle Biennale, titled SANCTUARY 25 will take place from 13–30 November 2025.

As the sun sets, musicians and guest artists will soundtrack the golden hour with free live music and concerts at our Manjaree (Bathers Beach) Precinct.

Featuring Aarti Jadu’s devotional and experimental voice, Banjo Lucia’s all fire songwriting, Drea’s soulful R&B, Aviva Endean’s boundary-pushing clarinet, the veena and percussion of IndianEye, and the high-energy improv jazz of Mali Jo$e. Plus special performances from Sonic Earth, a new commission by Natalia Mann, Merinidi Schrieber and Ilona McGuire, weaving saltwater songlines from Samoa to Gimuy to Whadjuk Country, and Wodoi & Jungun led by Leah Umbagai and the Mowanjum dancers.

Our Bar will be open slinging local brews and fresh drops.
