About EnjoyPerth!
EnjoyPerth! is about informing you about what’s on in Perth and Fremantle, Western Australia.
I (Simone) write posts about the bigger touring bands and festivals when they are announced, and monthly and weekly ‘what’s on’ posts covering concerts, festivals, comedy, theatre and other miscellaneous events. All these events, and more, are also added to the calendar. You can help me by submitting events!
I started this blog as a bit of fun in April 2006, and it’s grown into something quite a bit bigger, covering costs with the advertising on the sides. I still update it in my spare time, I have a day job that has nothing to do with events, media or journalism! I have also never had my own website, besides a personal blog.
I hope you enjoy the site and find it useful, and if you have any questions or comments, please contact me.
If you would like to be notified when I write a new post, please subscribe by email or rss feed, it’s free!

About Simone
My name is Simone van Hattem, I’m twenty something and I live in Perth. I love going to festivals, concerts and gigs, the occasional theatre or comedy show, camping down south, hanging out with friends, going out for dinner, the movies….. and much more (which includes updating this website and spending quite a bit of time online!). Yes…. I’m always busy… but that’s the way I like it, life’s too short!
I was born in the Netherlands, spent my childhood throughout Western Australia, before moving back to the Netherlands to finish high school and go to uni. In 2004 I moved back to WA.
I have a personal blog too, but it’s not updated much.
