Busselton Pride Alliance are a  queer-led community group working to improve the health and wellbeing of LGBTQIA+ people in the south west. We offer a range of social events, community education, and advocacy work throughout the year. See our website for more information.

Opened in 2026, Saltwater, is Busselton's new state-of-the-art performing arts centre and conference centre.  Saltwater provides a modern, flexible setting for the festival’s program of talks, workshops, performances, and opportunities to connect. The venue includes contemporary conference spaces, a large foyer, art gallery and a state-of-the-art auditorium.

The festival’s move to Saltwater reflects our ambition to create a welcoming, accessible and engaging experience that brings people together. Its flexible spaces allow different parts of the festival program to happen under one roof, while its location places attendees right in the heart of Busselton. Saltwater is part of the Busselton Cultural Precinct, located on Wadandi Boodja and just across from the historic Old Courthouse Complex. The venue's name recognises the Wadandi ‘Saltwater’ people, the Traditional Owners of the Country on which it stands.

Located on the stunning shores of Geographe Bay in Western Australia, 230km south of Perth, Busselton is a vibrant regional city known for its natural beauty, welcoming community and strong connection to arts, culture and wellbeing.

Visitors can enjoy the iconic Busselton Jetty, the longest timber-piled jetty in the Southern Hemisphere, beautiful beaches, local food and wine, arts and cultural experiences, and the natural beauty of the surrounding Margaret River Region. Whether you're joining us from across the region or travelling from further afield, we invite you to make a weekend of it and experience everything Busselton and the South West have to offer.
