Support acts also included WA’s own Luke Fox, Australian singer/songwriter Hein Cooper and Kiwi band Summer Thieves.

There were displays of colourful roving musicians and dancers, while children were kept entertained with free activities including drumming workshops, tribal face painting and headband making.

The cultural festivities were complemented by a selection of cuisines including food trucks representing all corners of the world from Mexico to France.
