It appears the Mandurah Crab Fest – is now ‘unlikely’ to go ahead.

Mandurah Mayor Rhys Williams is discussing with WA’s chief health officer on whether or not the event should take place as scheduled over the weekend – in light of the current coronavirus outbreak.

The annual crab fest attracts around 100 thousand people over the weekend.

Roy is a stallholder and told Gareth Parker he had received a phone call during which he was told the event had been cancelled.
