The Whaleshark Festival is an all ages event, and is possibly the only event in honour of that unique, spectacular creature, the whale shark which is recognised both nationally and internationally! The four days see activities, markets and entertainment for all tastes!
Friday night’s Opening Festival Gala is a chance to dress up, enjoy canapés and sip wine to the rock, reggae, and soul sounds of The Sunshine Brothers. There is family movie night for everyone on Thursday, Saturday’s Talanjee Oval activities, Grace’s Tavern on Saturday night - always a festival favourite, or the Sunday beach side events. Sunday will bring Family Day at Town Beach, where you will find active beach games and evening entertainment from fire juggling and live music, to circus shows!
In addition to all or these exciting activities, the festival also sees host to a variety of workshops and educational sessions with Aboriginal groups and visiting scientists, with an important aim to celebrate the magnificent whaleshark and to inform visitors on the important research undertaken at Ningaloo.
