Australia Day
 
Hi All

Just curious to see if anyone knows of anything that is happening on Australia Day in Perth............

I was here for Australia Day 2001 and we went to south Perth Foreshore............ We are living NOR now and was wondering if the fireworks etc still go from the Swan River?


Any help would be great.:thumbsup::thumbsup:

I am fully aware that there is an awful lot of people that do not like Perth and think that it is boring, that is their choice, there is plenty of threads on this forum that are taking the P**s out of Perth go and read them, all I was asking for was some simple information from people that are willing to help............. :p
