The lifts are up, the cans are shaking, and the first strokes of color are hitting the walls! Welcome to Day 1 of the Benalla Street Art Festival 2026.
Right now, across every corner of Benalla, world-class street artists are hard at work. Our laneways, carparks, and shopfronts are being transformed into a living, breathing open-air gallery before your very eyes. There is nothing quite like the energy of Day 1—watching a monumental vision start to take shape in real time.
Don't miss a single wall! Make sure your first stop is the Benalla Visitor Information Centre to pick up your official festival map. It’s your golden ticket to finding every hidden masterpiece and tracking the progress of our artists all weekend long.
Grab your camera, hit the pavement, and let’s celebrate the art! 📸🏃♂️
