The Buddha’s Birthday & Multicultural Festival is a vibrant community celebration that brings together culture, compassion, and connection.
Rooted in the values of Humanistic Buddhism, the festival reflects the Australian ideals of inclusion, respect, diversity, and community wellbeing. It offers a welcoming space where people of all backgrounds can come together to experience culture, learn from one another, and celebrate the richness of multicultural Australia.
Through music, food, art, family activities, and mindfulness experiences, the festival invites visitors to explore shared human values such as kindness, harmony, and respect for life.
Everyone is welcome — regardless of culture, belief, or background.
The easiest way to arrive! Take the Midland Line to Maylands Station and look for our Free Festival Shuttle Bus. The shuttle will take you directly to the festival entrance on Ferguson Road.
If you live locally, enjoy the scenic Swan River shared path right to our doorstep. We are just a short stroll from the riverbank and Bardon Park.
Coming with a group? Coordinate a carpool to Riverside Gardens (Memorial Dr) and catch our dedicated Free Shuttle Bus from the reserve.
Routes 41, 42, 48, and 55 stop directly on Guildford Road outside the Temple.
We were so grateful to have the amazing Scouts community as part of BBMF 2026 ❤️ Over the weekend, Scouts, leaders, and volunteers created a vibrant space dedicated to this year’s theme — Harmony & Peace. Through meaningful activities like origami cranes, peace doves, and the beautiful Peace Tree, they inspired visitors of all ages to reflect on kindness, compassion, and positive action. It was wonderful to see young people actively engaging with the community, sharing messages of peace, and participating in the many cultural and mindful experiences across the festival. 🌏✨ A big thank you to all the Scouts, leaders, and volunteers for your energy, dedication, and contribution in making BBMF such a special and meaningful event 🙏
