Become A Festival Friend

You can now join as a Friend for 2025.

Perth Festival of the Arts has an incredible network of Festival Friends who support us, attend events and enjoy benefits. Their support helps us develop our Festival each year and supports our work as a local charity.

We have 3 annual membership options so you can choose the benefits that best suit you. You can join or renew for the 2025 Festival from just £15. 

Friends enjoy a priority booking period for all festival shows. We will have two priority booking periods for the 2025 Festival - the first will be towards the end of 2024, when we will announce our first handful of shows going on sale. The second will be from Monday 17 March 2025 (10am) when our full Festival will go on sale.

If you renewed as a Friend via our website previously, please LOGIN first, to save you re-entering all your contact details.

Other Terms and Conditions

Friends memberships are only open to individuals and not organisations, and are non-transferable. If you are a business and would like to support the Festival, please visit our corporate sponsors page.

* Very occasionally, a show may have a reduced priority booking period due to a wider national tour. We will make you aware of this.

** Occasionally, some shows may be excluded from the discount offer due to the arrangement with the artist. Our website will highlight any exclusions.

For Best Friends - please note that the discount can only be applied to a single box office transaction (i.e. you must buy for 3+ shows at once) and a limit of 4 tickets per show per Friend is applied. The booking fee will still apply.

For Lifetime Friends - The discount can be used for a single show transaction and can be used multiple times. A limit of 4 tickets per show per Friend is applied.

*** We will contact our Friends each year to ask if you would like to renew your membership. If you do not renew within a 2-year period, we will remove your details from our Friends contact list. If you have opted in to receive our email newsletters, you will remain on this list unless you advise us otherwise or manually unsubscribe. 

Lifetime members will remain on our mailing list unless you request otherwise. Please view our Privacy Policy.

From time to time, the Festival may update the terms of the Friends memberships and change/ improve benefits. We will advise Friends of any changes.
