RTRFM’s NEON PICNIC RETURNS FOR ITS NINTH YEAR THIS MARCH
Join RTRFM at Hyde Park Amphitheatre on Saturday 21 March 2026 for Neon Picnic, a family-friendly live radio event with musical acts, kids entertainment and tasty treats.
Come and bask in the picnic paradise that is Neon Picnic and chill on the grass of Perth’s most beloved park enjoying an amazing lineup of RTRFM shows: Global Rhythm Pot, Homegrown and Drastic on Plastic, live and in-person, featuring special musical guests.
Catch some of the best local music Perth has to offer, from beloved station faves Australian Critters, Bella Dyer, Juliana Areias & Friends - The New Brazilian Wave, Sgt Hulka and the West Australian Youth Jazz Orchestra (WAYJO).
Bring the kids for a range of activities held throughout the day, including arts and crafts, from the creative minds at Art Jam, a zine-making workshop with Emiko Watanabe and the return of the RTRFM Bake Sale.
Relax with a drink from Whitelakes Brewing and wine from Blind Corner or grab a bite from Kitchen and Barrel and ice cream from Sweets on the Run. Plus this year RTRFM will be cooking up some snags from Mondo Butchers for an old fashioned sausage sizzle.
And we welcome our brand new sponsor Wiling Property Group and their coffee cart to get you going for the day.
Don’t miss out on this environmentally-friendly and FREE family event, supporting local music and businesses, especially not-for-profit community radio station RTRFM.
This event is proudly sponsored by major sponsors the City of Vincent and Willing Property Co. And supported by Blind Corner, CCA Productions, Paramount Security, Red Fox Property Group, Mondo Butchers and White Lakes Brewing Co.
This is an LGBTIQA+ friendly and safe event and takes place on Whaduk Nyoongar Boodjar. Please contact us for questions about accessibility at this event.
