A Plateful of Perth: A Month of Food, Drinks and Dining Experiences

We’re now well into Plateful Perth, with the city’s month-long celebration of food and drink running until the 31st of August 2026. With just over two weeks left, there’s still plenty of time to get out and enjoy what’s on offer.

Across the month, more than 90 exclusive offers and events across 80+ venues are showcasing Perth’s vibrant dining scene. From long lunches and shared feasts to cocktail masterclasses, chef collaborations and limited-edition menus, the program continues to deliver something for every taste and budget.

Something for Every Appetite

Plateful Perth is all about encouraging locals and visitors to experience the city’s restaurants, bars and dining spots in new and exciting ways.

The program is split into easy-to-navigate categories so you can quickly find the right experience for the moment. Premium Plates features elevated dining such as chef-hosted dinners and degustations, while Feast highlights generous shared menus and curated dining experiences. If you’re after something more relaxed, Sip Sessions offers cocktail masterclasses, tastings and bar-led experiences.

For those wanting to turn a meal into a mini escape, Gourmet Getaways combines dining with accommodation at selected hotels and venues across the city.

Plenty Still to Discover

Even at the halfway point, there’s no shortage of variety still to enjoy. The remaining weeks feature everything from French-inspired set menus and seafood feasts to Japanese dining experiences, pizza specials and seasonal WA produce showcases.

Drink lovers can still book into wine and whiskey tastings, cocktail workshops and one-off bar events, while food enthusiasts can get hands-on with cooking classes and chef-led experiences.

There are also unique, limited-time events still to come, making the second half of the month a great time to try something new or revisit a favourite spot.
