Heritage front and centre

The Australian Heritage Festival is a chance to share stories and advance our knowledge by bringing our heritage to life.

The annual Festival is an avenue to honour our history and ensure stories of the past continues to be handed down the generations.

The Festival encourages Western Australians to embrace and learn through a range of activities including exhibitions, walking tours, films, expert talks, workshops, food fairs, guided tours of historical sites, ceremonies and demonstrations, to bring Heritage to life

By simply playing, you have helped Lotterywest provide a grant of more than $2.8 million to the National Trust of Australia WA for projects and events, just like the Australian Heritage Festival.
