Benalla Street Art Festival

The Benalla Street Art Festival will take place from Friday 17 April to Sunday 19 April 2026 across Benalla, VIC 3672, transforming the town into a dynamic open‑air gallery filled with vibrant murals and public art. Over the three days, local streets, laneways and building façades become the canvas for live mural creations, with world‑class artists from Australia and overseas working on new pieces while visitors watch the artworks come to life.

This lively cultural event celebrates contemporary street art in all its forms, offering more than just visual spectacle. Attendees can enjoy live mural painting, artist talks, workshops, guided art walks and street performances, bringing together art lovers, families and the wider community to explore and engage with the creative process. Benalla’s existing outdoor collection—which already features dozens of large‑scale murals—serves as the backdrop for fresh artistic expression throughout the festival.

Beyond the art itself, the festival fosters a vibrant atmosphere with food vendors, pop‑up performances and community gatherings, encouraging visitors to discover Benalla’s unique culture and creative scene. Whether you’re strolling through colourful laneways, chatting with artists or taking part in hands‑on activities, the street art festival offers a memorable and immersive weekend celebrating creativity in the heart of regional Victoria.
