Sound States

A huge thank you to for supporting Sound States 2026 🎟️

Oztix is a leading Australian ticketing platform, providing ticketing services for thousands of live events, festivals, and venues across the country, helping connect audiences with live music experiences every day.

Their support plays an important role in helping us deliver Sound States as a free program, including funding that contributes directly towards regional travel support for participants coming from outside the Perth metro area.

This kind of partnership helps ensure Sound States remains accessible to artists and managers across WA, no matter where they’re based.

We’re incredibly grateful to have them on board for 2026 🤍

If you’ve been thinking about applying to Sound States… this is your sign 👀

A strong application isn’t about saying the “right” thing; it’s about being clear on where you’re at and where you want to go.

We want to understand you, your project, and what you’d get out of the program.

Good news: deadline extended
⏰ Now closing 11:59PM, 30 April
