About the Event

What do you get when you mix a little poetry, a few great stories and a whole lot of soulful music? One fantastic night out!

As the Festival of Halls, an Albany 2026 project delivered by ArtSouthWA, comes to a close, we’re bringing everyone together for one last celebration of creativity, community and local talent.

We’ll kick things off with local poets and storytellers taking to the floor to share their own words, favourite prose and stories inspired by the Festival of Halls. Hear how these special events have brought historic halls to life and made a lasting impact on the communities around them.

Then it’s time to sit back, tap your toes and let the music take over! 🎸

Local favourites 3Fifths and Southern Reverie will serve up a delicious mix of smooth, soulful sounds and much-loved classics, with tunes from the likes of James Taylor, The Drifters and more.

So, whether you're a lover of words, a music enthusiast or simply looking for a fabulous night out, come along and join the celebration!

Bards & Ballads – The Festival of Halls Finale. A little poetry, a lot of soul and a whole lot of local talent.
