Perth Park will be Western Australia's premier entertainment and sporting precinct.
Sitting alongside the Belmont Park Racecourse and Crown Perth, Perth Park will bring Optus Stadium and the State Tennis Centre together with exciting new facilities to create Western Australia's premier entertainment and sporting precinct.
The independent ACIL Allen business case found the new facilities will deliver more than $61 million in economic activity each year, helping to diversify the WA economy, creating new jobs in tourism, sport and the arts.
Importantly, Perth Park will continue the reinvigoration of the Burswood Peninsula, with landscaped parklands and more trees for the local community.
The precinct will include:
- Landscaped parkland: Exciting new space for large-scale festivals and for the community and families to enjoy throughout the year.
- More trees: More than double the existing tree canopy, with a new urban forest made up of native shrubs, ground cover and trees.
- Multi-use building: Event, function and sporting facilities for the community with space for motor sport and cycling along with other public amenities.
- Amphitheatre: Perth's first dedicated outdoor amphitheatre for concerts and events for up to 12,000 people.
- Multi-use track: For cycling training and competitions, as well as an annual motor sport street circuit event.
- New hospitality venue: An opportunity for the private sector to invest in a new, year-round food and beverage venue.
