A peek behind the curtain at Perth Festival
Perth Festival has released a dramatically changed program for 2022 along with its first-ever 12-month financial report since becoming a stand-alone company.
Lotterywest is a state government-owned business which directs profits towards community projects. It has proudly supported the community for over 80 years and remains committed to a vision to build a better Western Australia together.
Each week, they give Western Australians a chance to dream through playing a range of Lottery games where all the proceeds after they have paid prizes to their winners and covered our operating costs are given back to the community.
Thousands of community, local government and charitable organisations, as well as sporting organisations, arts and cultural groups and the State’s health services are supported each year.
