About us
Annerley Junction Fest is a free, all-ages street festival run entirely by volunteers.
Held every October, it brings the community together to celebrate local culture, creativity, and connection. With live music, art, food, and family fun, we do it to showcase Annerley’s vibrant spirit and foster a welcoming, inclusive neighbourhood.
Junction Fest has something for everyone!
The festival features a lively program of events, a vibrant community art show, and a wide range of fun activities for kids of all ages.
Entertainment Program
Our entertainment program includes live music, cultural performances, and community showcases across multiple stages.
Annual Art Show
The Junction Fest Art Show highlights the creativity of local artists, with works on display from emerging and established talent.
Kids Zone
Kids can enjoy hands-on activities, games, and interactive workshops designed to spark imagination and fun.
2025 theme
Connecting Annerley
The 2025 theme, Connecting Annerley, celebrates the rich tapestry of people, stories, and cultures that make our neighbourhood unique.
It’s about building connections—between neighbours, generations, and communities—and creating spaces where everyone feels welcome. Through art, music, conversation, and shared experiences, this year’s festival invites us to reconnect with each other and the place we call home.
Carolyn Vincent’s
Ubuntu Foundation
The Ubuntu Foundation, run by local Carolyn Vincent, is a community-focused organisation that supports initiatives promoting inclusion, creativity, and social connection.
Their commitment to fostering connection and belonging and uplifting local voices aligns perfectly with Annerley Junction Fest’s mission to celebrate diversity, strengthen neighbourhood ties, and create a welcoming space for all.
Get Involved as a Supporter
As a fully volunteer-run festival, we rely on generous support from our community to be able to close the street and provide the entertainment and activities. We are grateful to local politicians from all levels of government who are generous with their time and resources. Local businesses also support us with funding and elbow grease, along with raffles prizes and other in-kind donations. The committee is committed to providing excellent value and returns on investments for those who support the festival. We couldn’t do it without you!
Our Performers
Annerley Junction Fest is so proud to be able to provide a platform for local musicians to play. Check out some of the acts that have appeared at Junction Fest in the past. Give them a follow on Spotify!
