While many major events are still being cancelled due to COVID restrictions, those able to go ahead are selling out like never before.
Jarrahfall Food and Folk Festival coordinator Clayton Fredericks said this month's Dwellingup festival had never before sold out so quickly.
"With 35 acres, we're pretty unique in that we can have 650 people and have them spread out so that we can meet all the guidelines," he said.
"Not many places that can do.
"We were sold out a month prior.
"We sold out much faster than the previous year where we still had tickets available up until the end."
Blossom Festival in Boddington also sold out with weeks to spare even though just two weeks out from the scheduled date organisers were unsure whether they could go ahead, due to COVID-19 regulations.
