Fremantle Markets Audio Tour

Come experience this 40 minute immersive self-guided historical audio tour of Fremantle Markets.

Let the voices of local artists guide you through the history of this Victorian-era gem, brought to life through an evocative soundscape.

Meet a carnival of eccentric characters from the past and the present; rogues, ruffians, psychics, spruikers, and snake oil salesmen.

Wonder at the disembodied banging heard from beneath the floorboards. Thrill to the tale of the fugitive who hid for days amongst the rafters. Marvel at the police siege of the injured criminal trapped on the rooftop.

Admire the Federation-Romanesque architecture, of limestone, iron, jarrah, and cobblestone.

Witness how the markets served our town through a gold rush, the turn of a century, the depression, and two World Wars before it was left derelict, and threatened with demolition.

Learn how it rose from the ashes to become a beloved Freo institution, drawing more than a million visitors from across the globe through its gates each year. Be one of the few who uncovers its true mysteries, on this immersive aural experience.
