As Perth’s first dedicated outdoor amphitheatre with ‘plug and play’ facilities, the venue will significantly reduce setup and transport costs for artists and promoters offering a more affordable option for hosting outdoor music and entertainment events in the city.

Western Australia faces a unique challenge of being the most isolated city in the world. This makes it a costly exercise to bring major events including international touring artists, entertainers and sporting events to Perth.

The Western Australian Government recognises the gap in Perth’s entertainment-focused event infrastructure, and the high cost of running events in Perth. The permanent amphitheatre at Perth Park will accommodate up to 12,000 people, enabling an increase in the number of local events, intimate concerts and global music acts hosted in WA. The design will also allow for scalable capacity to cater for different audience sizes.

Permanent back-of-house amenities for artists and event organisers will include dressing rooms, production spaces and storage.

The venue will feature a variety of viewing options, with space for people to stand or sit at the front of the stage, and a grassed area suitable for standing or relaxing on a blanket. Premium viewing areas will also be offered.

Beyond the amphitheatre within the inner track, a landscaped area will provide space for community events, festivals, or multi-stage performances.
