2026 PERTH SCREENING
TAKE48 COMES TO PERTH!
WA teams have been showing up big time for TAKE48 over the last few years, so it's about time that we officially brought your films to a big screen on the west coast.
To celebrate the incredible work coming out of WA, we've teamed up with Perth locals, Dolly Llama Productions, to co-present the 4th Annual Golden Llamas - an amazing initiative started by them 4 years ago to champion Western Australia's TAKE48 filmmakers.
This year, we're bringing you a special screening event, showcasing all 14 of the short films made for TAKE48 2026 by teams based in WA (and maybe even an additional selection of incredible WA-made short films as well!)
The event will also include an awards ceremony, featuring 4x TAKE48 WA Signature Awards and the coveted Golden Llama Awards, plus, a not-to-miss afterparty, hosted by Monsters Studios after the screening! More details below.
WHEN?
Thursday, 19 November, 6:30pm - 8:30pm (doors 6:00pm)
WHERE?
Luna Leederville (155 Oxford Street, Leederville WA 6007)
AFTERPARTY
