Araluen Botanic Park – A Natural Stage for Arts, Culture & Celebration
Set in the Perth Hills, Araluen Botanic Park is not only a garden paradise but also a vibrant hub for arts, culture, and community events. The Park features more than 20 heritage structures, including grand timber and stone pergolas, log cabins and a tiered stone grassed Amphitheatre, landscaped and overlooking the Old Swimming Pool. The park comes alive with music, during our daytime events, or early evening symphony. The sound carries beautifully through the valley.
Throughout the year, Araluen hosts an inspiring calendar of events:
