Falls Downtown announces new stages, adds a heap of great locals to the mix

Say hello to the Danceteria, Old Time Dancehall and Church Of Heavenly Delights.

You can check the already-announced lineup HERE, but now you've got a host of new local artists who're joining in the fun, along with some just-announced creative spaces they'll be playing in:

MAIN STAGE ADDITIONS:

Set amongst the big old trees, historic buildings and sunny and then starry skies of Fremantle Town Square, buzzy local acts Elli Schoen and Mt Mountain will be kicking things off early across both days.

DANCETERIA:

Hidden away deep in the dark basement gallery of the MANY makers markets in the old Myer building, you'll litereally be going deep into the dark underground of electronic music, with sets from local crews The Community, Fungle Club, Boogie Night Media, Camp Doogs, Polyrythmic, Pilerats (that's us!) and a special live set from Kari Faux.

OLD TIME MUSIC HALL:

The Fremantle Town Hall will host some great old time music, along with a craft beer bar, communal furniture and more to bring out the charm of this beautiful space. Setting the mood will be Blind Tiger's Boogie Box, playing host to the likes of Manhatton's Hot Swing, Stoney Joe, Luke Dux & Atomic Lunchbox, Jimmy Mac, Swing Dancers and more.

CHURCH OF HEAVENLY DELIGHTS:

St John's Anglican Church will bring laughter to your days, with some of the country's most hilarious comedians taking to the stage in the 1843-built church building. Chuckle along with acts like Joel Creasey, MC Andy Saunders, The Stevenson Experience, Aunty Donna, MC Ivan Aristiguieta, The Big Hoo-Haa, Bullsh*!# Trivia, The Tor-Night Show and more.
