Where Dream Events Happen 

Tourism WA has a clear vision for Western Australia to be the fastest growing events destination in the South East Asia Region. 

We’re constantly expanding our internationally-recognised calendar of events and investing in bookable blockbusters, exclusive content, community and regional events, and homegrown events that are uniquely West Australian. 

These events generate a strong economic impact for our state by creating jobs, boosting hospitality businesses, filling hotel rooms and generating bookings. 

Events also add to the vibrancy of Perth and Western Australia and provide a legacy of infrastructure for the local economy and community.
