FISAF is a curated festival, meaning international and local acts are carefully selected for inclusion by a programmer. Buskers may only perform within road closure areas outside of official festival programming hours (i.e. buskers may perform before midday and after 9pm within the FISAF road closures).
City of Fremantle Community Safety Officers have the power to ask buskers to move on under the Noise Abatement Act and will issue fines for nuisance behaviour.
FISAF is curated, which means we do not accept applications, acts are chosen by the Festivals team to ensure a balanced and high-quality program.
You can send a proposal to the festival programmer for consideration by emailing festivals@fremantle.wa.gov.au
