The magic of Little Feet Festival returned to Joondalup’s Edith Cowan University on Sunday 26 October - and what a day we had! More than 5000 people joined us beneath the pines for five hours of non-stop fun and curiosity.  

 

From towering dinosaurs to out-of-this-world science experiments, families enjoyed a full day of activities under the sun. The award-winning Dinosaur Time Machine and Baby Dinosaur Show proved firm favourites, while The Curious Game had audiences laughing, cheering, and joining in on the action.  

 

The festival buzzed with curiosity and creativity, from the fizzing eruptions of Volcano Valley and mind-blowing experiments at Dr Curio’s Science Lab to hands-on fun with fossil making, air clay creations, and slime time. 

 

St Stephen’s School transported kids to the stars with The Solar System Explorers experience, featuring giant inflatable planets and space-themed adventures. Whilst roving performances from the Oztronauts, Butterfly Catchers and African Drummers brought the energy.  

 

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for making Little Feet Festival 2025 a great day. A special mention to our major partner - St Stephen’s School - for their continued support, and to all the performers, vendors, and staff.  

 

We can’t wait to see you all again next year!
