The City also has a strong focus on arts and culture and owns and runs the iconic Fremantle Arts Centre and world-renowned festivals including Australia's oldest festival, the Fremantle Festival.

About this Tender:

The City of Fremantle manages four beaches, Leighton Beach, Port Beach, Bathers Beach and South Beach, that are used by locals and tourists for swimming, relaxing, kite surfing, paddling and other leisure activities year-round. For this reason, the City is seeking to engage a Contractor to remove accumulated seaweed and rubbish over the summer months to provide a high amenity value to the community over the highest use periods.
