As Perth pops with vibrant spring colours, the school holidays are the perfect opportunity for families and visitors to get out into the sun and explore the city’s exciting activities.
Kick off the holidays with a slam dunk at HoopsFest, making its Australian debut from 19 to 22 September. This four-day basketball extravaganza will energise Perth with games across three venues and an immersive Fan Zone at Forrest Place.
At the Fan Zone, you can meet players, enjoy live music, watch a slam dunk exhibition on a 3×3 court, and participate in Special Olympics events. Plus, there will be food trucks, various entertainment, and a display of some of the world’s rarest sneakers. For added convenience, free rickshaws will be available for those traveling between Forrest Place and RAC Arena for the basketball games.
The City of Perth Library recently named one of Australia’s ‘Coolest Libraries’ offers a range of engaging activities over the holidays. Explore holiday crafts, join printing workshops, enjoy spooky story time sessions, and get creative with stage makeup workshops. It’s an ideal destination for family fun and creative inspiration during the break!
