Three of Benalla’s new street art murals are up for a prestigious award.

Every month leading street art platform, Street Art Cities, looks for the best street art in the world.

Verified artists have submitted their work, resulting in a dazzling selection of 115 artworks in 70 cities, and Benalla has three nominations in with a chance of becoming the street art city of the month.

Voting has opened for 10 days, and you can vote for your favourite now.

The three nominations are Claire Foxton’s mural on the side of Polished, Adnate and D.R.E.Z’s mural overlooking The Shed and Aurora Campbell’s mural on the Visitor Information Centre.

Co-founder of Street Art Cities, Tim Marschang, said each month artists from more than 100 countries submit work.

"Street art is one of the fastest-growing art movements worldwide, and with new walls emerging daily, it’s important to highlight the incredible creativity happening at street level," Mr Marschang said.

"Our Monthly Mural Competition is more than a contest because we understand you can't compare art or artists.

“This proven formula shines a light on both renowned muralists and emerging talents, giving them the recognition they deserve, and opens the door to urban art in general when picked up by the media."

The Benalla Street Art 2025 artists are up against some incredible murals from Germany to Ireland, the US, Italy, Belgium, Brazil and many more worldwide locations.
