Major milestone as WA's biggest wildflower event blooms

The Everlasting Kings Park Festival launch today marks 60 years of wildflower celebrations in the heart of Perth.

Visitors to Kings Park and Bold Park will discover free and low-cost exhibitions, interactive displays, wellness classes, guided tours and workshops.

The events highlight not only the beauty of Western Australian flora, but also the conservation commitment required for the future.

More than 300,000 visitors are expected to enjoy the spring displays from 15 September

through to 1 October.

The festival compliments the success of Kings Park hosting the internationally renowned Lightscape event earlier this year, which attracted thousands of visitors.

The Western Australian Botanic Garden remains the starring attraction with around 3,000 of WA's 12,000 species of native flora.

As stated by Environment Minister Reece Whitby:

"Kings Park remains a popular destination for not only tourists, but for all Western Australians to learn more about our native flora.

"The Everlasting Kings Park Festival is a free celebration that reminds us of the wonders of our unique wildflower season.

"I encourage as many Western Australians as possible to get out to Kings Park and enjoy what spring has to offer."
