Upcoming Events in Perth

SeatPick makes it easier to turn a night out into a proper Perth experience, whether you are heading to a stadium game, an arena concert, or a show closer to the city centre. With Perth tickets sorted in advance, you can choose the right seats for the venue, then build the rest of your plans around the CBD, Burswood, Northbridge, or Fremantle.

Why buy tickets in Perth via SeatPick?

Perth works well for ticket planning because the city’s biggest events are split across a small number of high‑impact venues, each with a very different feel. A match at Optus Stadium, a Wildcats game at RAC Arena, and a football night at HBF Park all give you distinct versions of Perth, so having them side by side makes it much easier to decide which one deserves your evening.

• Compare Perth’s main event choices in one place, from West Coast Eagles, Fremantle Dockers, and Perth Scorchers fixtures at Optus Stadium to Perth Wildcats games at RAC Arena and Perth Glory matches at HBF Park.
• Use seating and venue details to decide whether you want a giant open stadium, a central indoor arena, or a more rectangular football ground with a tighter atmosphere.
• Avoid leaving key bookings too late in a city where one marquee sporting fixture or big concert can turn the whole evening into a sell‑out zone.
• Plan by district as well as by event, deciding whether your night fits best with Burswood, the CBD, or Northbridge rather than treating Perth as one compact downtown.

Top Perth sports teams

Perth’s sports identity is unusually clear: the city’s biggest teams are concentrated in just a few major venues, and each one attracts a different crowd and tempo.

West Coast Eagles and Fremantle Dockers at Optus Stadium

Optus Stadium is the flagship venue for Perth sport and the home of the West Coast Eagles, Fremantle Dockers, and Perth Scorchers. With a 60,000‑seat capacity, it delivers the city’s biggest matchday atmosphere and is the obvious target when you want a major AFL or cricket event.

Perth Wildcats at RAC Arena

The Perth Wildcats play at RAC Arena in the city centre, where the indoor setup gives basketball a much more compact and urban feel than the stadium sports on the river side. If you want a live sports night that is easy to combine with dinner, bars, and a short walk back through the CBD, this is the team and venue to watch.

Perth Glory at HBF Park

Perth Glory call HBF Park home, and the rectangular layout gives soccer a more intimate shape than the city’s larger stadiums. It is the best place to catch Perth football if your dates line up with an A‑League fixture and you want a ground that feels close to the action.

Top Perth music venues

Perth’s music scene stretches from huge arena tours to more characterful club and theatre spaces, with enough variety to support both blockbuster and local nights out.

RAC Arena and Optus Stadium

RAC Arena handles major touring concerts in the heart of the city, while Optus Stadium also hosts large‑scale music events when tours need stadium capacity. Together, they cover the biggest end of Perth’s concert market, from polished indoor shows to the rare open‑air blockbuster.

Fremantle Arts Centre and Astor Theatre

Fremantle Arts Centre gives the city a more atmospheric, heritage‑driven live‑music setting close to the port city’s bars and cafés. The Astor Theatre adds another beloved theatre‑scale venue, ideal for acts that suit a seated room or a historic interior rather than a giant arena.

Other live music spots

Perth’s smaller venues and pubs keep the local scene alive beyond the headline shows, especially in Northbridge and Fremantle. That mix means you can choose between a major touring production and a more intimate gig without leaving the city’s core entertainment areas.

Top Perth attractions

Perth’s main sights are spread out but easy to enjoy when you let the river, parks, and coastal day trips define the trip.

Highlights include:

• Kings Park and Botanic Garden, one of the world’s largest inner‑city parks and one of the best places to see the skyline and river together.
• Elizabeth Quay, the waterfront precinct that links the city centre to the Swan River.
• Fremantle, with its port heritage, markets, breweries, and prison history.
• Swan Valley, which adds wine, food, and a slower countryside rhythm just beyond the city.
• Rottnest Island and the Perth beaches, which turn a city stay into something much more coastal and outdoorsy.

Planning your Perth visit

Perth is easiest to plan when you choose one event and one area as your day’s centre of gravity. A football night at Optus Stadium pairs well with a relaxed riverfront afternoon or a pre‑game walk through the city, while a Wildcats game at RAC Arena fits neatly with Northbridge dinner plans and a shorter city‑centre evening.

If you book the ticket first, the city opens up in a more relaxed way: stadium or arena at night, beaches or gardens by day, and enough time left over for Fremantle, Kings Park, or a Swan River detour. Perth rewards that approach because it is spacious enough to feel unhurried, but event‑driven enough that one well‑chosen game or show can define the whole visit.
