The event consisted of various music, family, food, fashion and art programs.[3] In 2014, over 150,000 people attended the festival, making it one of Perth's largest street festivals at that time.[1]
In 2016 the Beaufort Street Network community group who organised the event announced the festival would "take a break" given concerns around the growing numbers of people attending the event.
