More than 80 venues across Perth’s CBD will participate in this year’s Plateful Perth festival, offering a month-long program of dining experiences, special offers, and accommodation packages throughout August 2026.
Fourth Year of Culinary Celebrations
Now in its fourth year, the City of Perth festival features 90 food, drink, and hospitality experiences that showcase the city’s restaurants, bars, hotels, and chefs. The program is divided into four categories—Bargain Bites, Premium Plates, Sip Sessions, and Gourmet Getaways—designed to cater to a wide range of tastes and budgets.
City of Perth deputy Lord Mayor David Goncalves said the festival provides an opportunity for venues to showcase their culinary offerings while attracting residents and visitors into the city. “We are delighted to see Plateful Perth return for its fourth year,” he said. “With a variety of exclusive offers and one-off experiences that aren’t normally on the menu, the city is the place to be this August.”
Diverse Dining Options
The Bargain Bites program offers 20 food and drink deals starting from $15, aimed at city workers, students, and visitors looking for affordable dining options. Italian food lovers can enjoy a four-course dinner at Garum, where chefs Guy Grossi and Paolo Apuzzo will pair regional dishes with wines and storytelling inspired by a traditional Italian dining experience.
Margaret River winery Vasse Felix will partner with Samuels on Mill for a Winter Wine Series event, featuring a three-course menu matched with wines from one of Western Australia’s most well-known wineries.
Festival Details
The festival will run from August 1 to 31. For the full program and more information, visit the Plateful Perth website.
