2025 Shinju Matsuri Festival
Shinju Matsuri 2021
Following the success of this year’s festival and the lifting of restrictions we are extremely pleased to announce that Broome’s much-loved festival will return in 2021 even bigger and better than before. With dates extended too:
21 August to 5 September 2021
Tickets for some of next year's events will go on sale on Thursday, November 26th so keep an eye on the Shinju Matsuri Facebook page and website for more details.
We are extremely excited to announce that in 2021 local artists Jacky Cheng, Jody Loaring, Michael Torres and Tomoko Yamada will join forces with international artist, Lisa Foo, to create a largescale installation at Town Beach that explores the theme of ‘Home’.
Throughout the festival we will be welcoming locals and visitors to Broome to take part in the multiple workshops and events that will be taking place around this unique installation.|
2021 marks the 30th year that Lotterywest has supported Shinju Matsuri. Without the ongoing support of Lotterywest much loved events such as: Lotterywest Opening Ceremony, LiveLighter Float Parade, Livelighter Mardi Gras, Floating Lantern Matsuri and the Liveligher Festival Finale would not be possible. Thank you Lotterywest.
