There is no place better to be this April then Perth, especially with major occasions such as the Easter long weekend and Anzac day. There are so many events on and so many things to explore that you’ll be glad you made your way to Perth. Check out the list of events on in Perth for this April below!
West Coast v Adelaide Thunderbirds
Watch these traditional rivals, West Coast Fever and the Adelaide Thunderbirds, go head to head at Perth Arena on 01 April 2017! This round could also make history for Australian netball, with Fever working closely with organisers to explore the idea of leaving the roof open at the arena during the match. The game begins at 6:30 and will finish up around 8:30pm. Tickets start from $26. Come and support Western Australia!
How many Easter eggs will you find? There are lots of prizes to be won when you participate in the Fremantle Easter egg hunt taking place in Sunday 08 April. Your mission is to locate the shops with the Easter Bilby in their windows and head inside to find the number to enter the prize draw. There will also be free activities for when you need a break from searching too. Let the hunt begin!
Ridiculous Obstacle Challenge Race Perth 2017
Ridiculous Obstacle Challenge puts the fun back in Fun Run! If the idea of running five kilometers around a boring track just isn't for you, then perhaps you'd feel more at home in the 2017 Ridiculous Obstacle Challenge (ROC) Race. Yes, that really is its name – the ROC Race isn't your average 5km run, with 12 giant obstacles to tackle along the way. Starting from Gloucester Park in East Perth, this ridiculous race is not for the fainted hearted with challenges that include the Sweeper, the Leap of Faith and Wrecking Balls.
Fremantle International Street Arts Festival 2017
The Fremantle International Street Arts Festival is a dedicated street arts festival, having fabulous street theatre and many performers from the USA, Japan, UK, France, Cuba, the Netherlands, New Zealand and Australia. The event is over the Easter long weekend, 13-17 April, and Fremantle will be buzzing with excitement. There are bars and cafes extending into the streets, as well as the normal array of renowned cafes.
If you wish to pay your respects to the men and women who have served, and are still serving our nation, the Dawn Service will be conducted at the State War Memorial on Fraser Avenue beginning at 6.00am 25 April. The organisers of the Service recommend arriving anytime from 4.00am onwards as some travel delays may be experienced. Please note at 5.50am all lights will go out and at 6.00am all will be quiet as the Service commences. It is an incredible experience that is worth the effort.
