Australian Music Centre | Breaking sound barriers

Event Details

Perth and Western Australia host some of the most outstanding jazz talent in the country. King St Corner Pocket will showcase these exceptional local artists, emerging and established, in a fun filled festival where you don’t have to walk more than 50m to hear a new sound.

Festival performances will be 50-60 minutes long, with performances overlapping between 5.30 & 9.00pm each night at different venues in and around King Street, offering audiences the choice to mix and match their own choice of music.

The festival will be based at His Majesty’s Theatre (Downstairs at The Maj, Dress Circle Bar & Barre Café), with exciting pop-up venues in the Intercontinental Hotel Perth, Cheeky Sparrow, The Sewing Room & Prince Lane.
