Perth Stadium is primarily used forAustralian rules football andcricket. Perth's twoAustralian Football League (AFL) teams – theFremantle Football Club and theWest Coast Eagles – relocated their home games fromSubiaco Oval to Perth Stadium, while thePerth Scorchers play theirBig Bash League home games at the venue, having previously played at theWACA Ground.

Perth Stadium was built by a consortium led byMultiplex. The announcement of the Burswood location in June 2011 followed a series of earlier proposals for the stadium, including locations inSubiaco andEast Perth.

History

edit

Early proposals

edit
 
The Burswood Park Golf Course was closed and the stadium built on its northern end

In 2003, theGovernment of Western Australia commissioned a review to examine the future of major sporting venues in Western Australia. To conduct the review, a taskforce was appointed. It was chaired by John Langoulant, Chief Executive of theChamber of Commerce and Industry of Western Australia, and released its final report in May 2007.[8] The report recommended the construction of a new 60,000-seat stadium at eitherKitchener Park (which adjoinsSubiaco Oval) or inEast Perth, which would be suitable forAustralian rules football,cricket and also rectangular-field sports such assoccer,rugby union andrugby league. The taskforce recommended against the further development of Subiaco Oval, which would be demolished. It also recommended against building the new stadium at the site of Burswood, stating that "The development costs at the Burswood site would be significantly higher due to local site conditions and the need for significant upgrades to transport infrastructure."[9]

In July 2007, the Government of Western Australia announced its preference to build a new 60,000-seat stadium rather than re-develop Subiaco Oval,[10] and in early 2008 it confirmed that Subiaco Oval would be demolished for the new Perth super-stadium to be built next door at Kitchener Park.[11] This site was chosen ahead of the other suggested site at the oldEast Perth Power Station, which was set aside to house a new $500 millionmuseum.[12]

The new stadium at Subiaco was scheduled to be built between 2011 and 2016, with the majority of the stadium to be completed in 2014. Subiaco Oval was to be demolished between 2014 and 2016 to allow the end of construction on Perth Stadium. The staged construction would have allowed for Australian rules football to be played at the new venue by 2014, when the stadium was two-thirds completed with an initial capacity of 40,000 seats. The final stage would be completed in 2016 and expand the stadium's capacity to 60,000.[11][13]

Stadium plans suggested its playing surface would have been oval in shape to accommodate Australian rules football and cricket games. The stadium was also expected to have retractable seating which would have reconfigured the venue to make it suitable for rectangular-field sports codes, such as soccer, rugby union and rugby league.[14] These retractable seats were to number 22,000, and were to be situated along the touch lines and behind the posts in the rectangular configuration. With an overall planned capacity of 60,000, Perth Stadium would have been Western Australia's largest sports venue, and it was designed to be built such that the capacity could be increased to 70,000 if needed in the future.[13]

The stadium was expected to be primarily used for Australian rules football with the ability to host cricket, rugby union, rugby league and soccer matches. It was planned that it would be the home ground for theWest Coast Eagles andFremantle Dockers, the two Western Australian teams in theAustralian Football League. It was also planned to host rugby union Test matches, soccer androck concerts.[13] In reality AFL matches have been joined by the AFLW games and WAFL grand finals.

The cost for the Kitchener Park stadium was expected to reach $1.1 billion, including $800 million on construction of the stadium itself and $300 million on associated infrastructure, property acquisition, escalation, transport infrastructure and other costs.[11] Construction of the new stadium would have involved moving 27 private residences and moving residents from another 66 state housing properties surrounding Subiaco Oval. These state housing tenants would have been relocated within the Subiaco area.[13] The project was going to be funded by the Government of Western Australia.[12][13]

Following theelection of a new State Government underColin Barnett, the new stadium's plans were scrapped in early February 2009. Barnett stated that a new stadium would not be considered for at least two years.[15] As a result of Australia's failed bid for the2022 World Cup, $250 million in potentialfederal government funding for a new stadium was also withdrawn in December 2010.[16]

Burswood location

edit

In June 2011, the State Government announced that the new stadium would be built inBurswood on the northern section of the Burswood Park golf course.[17] The government stated that the Burswood site was preferred because it was unconstrained by surrounding developments and had the additional benefit of being government-owned.[9] It would also allow for a special events six-platformPerth Stadium railway station to be built and could be connected to the central business district via apedestrian bridge across theSwan River toEast Perth.[18] A car park was not built to service the stadium, with visitors expected to either park in the city and walk across the bridge or use public transport.[19]

 
The stadium is located on Burswood Peninsula inBurswood,Western Australia. It is just east ofClaisebrook Cove and west ofMaylands Peninsula, both across theSwan River. The stadium is approximately 1.3 km (0.8 mi) from theWACA, 900 m (984 yd) fromGloucester Park harness racing course, and 800 m (875 yd) fromBelmont Park Racecourse.

The Government stated that planning for the new stadium at Burswood was due to be completed by mid-2012, with construction commencing in 2014 and scheduled for completion in 2018. It announcedMultiplex as the contract holders for the construction of the stadium[20] and appointed the firmPopulous as the project's architectural consultants.[17]

Construction

Cost

edit

Following the Barnett Government's announcement to move the site of the proposed stadium to Burswood, it stated that the stadium would cost around $700 million, with an extra $300 million allocated to public transport works.[17][9] However, in December 2011 PremierColin Barnett stated that it was too early to say what the final cost would be, explaining that "No one can put a price on it until it's designed, until it goes out to tender".[9]

The previous Government's Major Stadia Taskforce had earlier put the total cost of the Burswood stadium option, including transport needs, at $1.147 billion.[17] This higher cost, comparative to the sites at Subiaco or East Perth, was mainly "due to the need to provide substantial transport infrastructure as well as the additional costs associated with site conditions (i.e. reclaimed flood plain and site previously used as the Perth Municipal Rubbish Dump which included industrial as well as domestic landfill up until 1971)."[21] In June 2011 theWest Australian newspaper reported that due to an increase in construction costs since the release of the task force report in 2007, the total cost will be close to $1.5 billion, assuming work begins within two years.[17]

TheAustralian Football League agreed to help pay for Perth's new stadium at Burswood, although it was not revealed how much money it would contribute.[22] However, the nearbyCrown Perth, which is expected to benefit commercially from the presence of the stadium, was not asked by the Barnett Government to help meet the construction costs.[23]

In October 2017 it was reported that the final cost of the completed stadium was $1.6 billion. This equated to an average cost per Western Australian household of $1500, and per person of $600.[24] In February 2018 a State Government inquiry into Western Australia's finances under the former Barnett government found that the full cost of the stadium including transport infrastructure will be $1.8 billion, around $200 million more than previous estimates.[25]

Impacts

The site is located on the Burswood Peninsula, previously known as the Swan Portland Cement Site. The Swan Portland Cement Company Ltd operated at the site from 1927 andJames Hardie Industries operated at the adjacent site from the 1920s up until 1981. In its report and recommendations,Remediation and Redevelopment of the Swan Portland Cement Site, Burswood, (January 1998) theEnvironmental Protection Authority, states "The current site is contaminated withasbestos waste from the James Hardie operations and cement kiln dust, kiln bricks and associated contaminated soil and hydrocarbons from the Swan Portland cement operations." In its report it estimates 750 thousand cubic metres (26 million cubic feet) cement kiln dust on the site, the effects of which should be managed, with regard to its effects upon public health, groundwater and surface water. Three zones of asbestos contamination on the site were identified in the report; zone 1 having 68 thousand cubic metres (2.4 million cubic feet) of broken and loose asbestos, zone 2 having 150 thousand cubic metres (5.3 million cubic feet) of asbestos contamination up to 15 metres (49 ft) below ground level and zone 3 being 180 thousand cubic metres (6.4 million cubic feet) of asbestos contamination within 600 thousand cubic metres (21 million cubic feet) of cement kiln dust.[26]

The EPA report states that while undisturbed in the soil, the contamination poses no threat to public health but disturbing the site will result in airborne asbestos fibres and contamination from the soil. The EPA recommended a management plan for any disturbance of asbestos contamination to be conducted by theTown of Victoria Park.

In November 2012, Victoria Park residents contacted the Health Department to notify them asbestos and other material had been unearthed by work on the southern parking lot of the Casino complex.[27] Alarmed residents feared asbestos exposure to locals, park users and Casino patrons. Although the Health Department advised that no risk had been identified, stock piles were sprayed with hydromulch, windbreaks were put on fencing, contaminant levels were being monitored and paths and loose soil were sealed. The Premier's office advised that the Department of Building Management and Works were undertaking the project. The Health Department assured residents there was "no risk to the general public".

The construction of the stadium affectedAboriginal communities. Although the State Solicitor's Office advises thatnative title has been extinguished over the site, it has heritage significance for the local indigenous people, theWhadjuk Noongar, being a burial site. Despite the Department of Indigenous Affairs advising the existence of the registered Aboriginal Heritage site affecting the Burswood Peninsula and East Perth foreshore, the site was deregistered by the Barnett Liberal State Government. Following the Supreme Court decision Robinson v Fielding [2015] WASC 108 to reinstate DAA 22874 (Marapikurrinya Yintha – Port Hedland Harbour) after it had been deregistered by the Barnett government,[28] the Burswood Island Burial site was reassessed in October 2016 but remains "Not a Site" under the Aboriginal Heritage Act (AHA).[29] Previously the site was recognised by the Department of Aboriginal Affairs under the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (AHA) as DAA site 15914: Burswood Island Burial. "Several culturally significant sites around WA have had their protection withdrawn in the past year on the basis they no longer fit the definition of a sacred site. Guidelines issued by the Department of Aboriginal Affairs stated that to be a recognised as sacred site, a place needs to have been devoted to religious use rather than simply mythological stories, songs or beliefs."[30]

Opening

edit

The first event to be held at the stadium was aTwenty20 cricket match between thePerth Scorchers and theEngland Lions on 11 December 2017, followed by a second match between the same teams two days later.[31] It was officially opened to the public on 21 January 2018 with a free open day for the community.[32]

Naming rights

edit
 
The original Perth Stadium logo

During construction, then-Premier Colin Barnett had maintained that the government would not be selling the naming rights for the stadium as it would "not be appropriate for such a significant piece of State-owned infrastructure".[33] Instead he suggested a name such as "Swan Stadium" or "River Stadium" – named after the adjacentSwan River – would be more appropriate.[34] Ultimately, the name Perth Stadium was settled on as it was more representative of Western Australia.[35] In the lead up to thestate election in March 2017, Labor, then in opposition, announced that it would sell the naming rights for both Perth Stadium andPerth Arena as part of a plan to return the state budget to surplus if it were to win government.[36]

Despite initially suggesting it might retain the Perth Stadium name or at least retain "Perth" in any naming rights arrangement,[37] the newMcGowan government announced on 8 November 2017 that the stadium would be officially known as Optus Stadium.Optus, the second-largesttelecommunications company in Australia, and the state government agreed to a 10-year naming rights deal that is thought to be worth approximately $50 million in value.[38]

For international cricket matches, the stadium is known as Perth Stadium, due to Cricket Australia’s contractual obligations.[39]

Facilities

edit

Architecture and design

edit

As with the earlier plans for the new stadium at Kitchener Park, the stadium seats over 60,000 spectators, with the ability to seat up to 70,000 in rectangular mode.[40] Initially in the early design stages, it was hoped the venue could have the potential to expand to 80,000 seats in the future by adding a third tier along one wing and another tier on the opposite side of the ground each holding 10,000 seats.[41] Even at 61,266, Perth Stadium still has the third-biggest capacity of any stadium in the country, behind theMelbourne Cricket Ground andAccor Stadium.[22][42]

The field is 165 m (541 ft) long and 130 m (430 ft) wide, 5 m (16 ft) longer than both the Melbourne Cricket Ground andDocklands Stadium inMelbourne, but 10 m (33 ft) shorter than Subiaco Oval which was 175 by 122 m (574 by 400 ft).[41] It is a multi-purpose facility able to hold not only sporting events such as Australian rules football and major rugby league, rugby union, cricket and soccer games, but major cultural events such as concerts and other entertainment events.[12]

Like the WACA, when the Fremantle sea breeze blows across the stadium, it gives welcoming relief from the heat. However, due to the stadium seating being a fully enclosed, open roofed dome, the stadium can get hotter than the WACA.

Technological Innovations

edit

Optus Stadium is equipped with a range of state-of-the-art technological features designed to enhance the fan experience.[43][44]

LED Displays

edit

The stadium features dual giantLED displays, each spanning over 284 square meters. These displays are manufactured byMitsubishi Electric andDaktronics, and they offer ultra-sharp 4K resolution.[45]

Connectivity

edit

Optus Stadium provides robust connectivity through a multi-layer network built onCisco's industrial-gradeWi-Fi 6 access points. Additionally,Telstra enhances the coverage by blanketing the stadium in5G signal.[44]

Roof design

edit

The stadium's roof comprises a light weight membrane textile that covers 85% of the seats. It is supported by cantilevered trusses to give a halo effect, with all columns located behind the seating area.[46][47]

Integrated Technologies

edit

The stadium leverages integrated technology for a seamless fan experience, including digital ticketing, sensor-equipped turnstiles, and a stadium app offering real-time information.[48][43]

Food and amenities

edit

The stadium is serviced by over 50 food and beverage outlets, with patrons able to follow on-field action on TV screens.[49] Fans will never be more than 40 metres (130 ft) away from a bar or food outlet, with 75 percent of food supplied from locally owned and operated businesses.[50] The Camfield, a large pub,microbrewery and function centre, is located outside the stadium and open seven days a week.[51]

There are two 340 m2 (3,700 sq ft) screens on either end of the stadium and over 1,000 TV screens located within it. The stadium has 748 male, 781 female and 60accessible toilets.[52] Security features include an on-site police station, 650CCTV cameras around the stadium and surrounding precinct, and freestanding metal detectors at the stadium.[53][54]

During the Test Cricket match in December 2019, a temporary swimming pool was installed, similar to the one atThe Gabba.[55]

In February 2021 a rooftop tour branded "Halo" was opened at the stadium, allowing participants to walk around the stadium's roof.[56] In August 2021 a new viewing platform began construction on top of the roof on the western side of the stadium. The wheelchair accessible platform, which resembles apull tab from above, projects 5 metres (16 ft) beyond both sides of the stadium roof and also features a section where visitors can lean over the playing field below while wearing a safety harness.[57] The platform and the attraction - branded "Vertigo" - both opened in March 2022.[58]

Transport

edit

As the stadium is located on a peninsula with limited road access, the majority of visitors have to travel to and from the stadium primarily by public transport. ThePublic Transport Authority aims to have 83 percent of visitors use public transport.[59] The six-platformPerth Stadium railway station and 22-standPerth Stadium Bus Station located nearby are expected to serve an estimated 28,000 and 8,000 passengers respectively on event days.[59][60]

For events, 8,600 people typically walk and cycle across the Swan River via theWindan Bridge, and an additional 14,300 walk across theMatagarup Bridge which connects the stadium precinct with public transport and car parks in East Perth.[61][62] There are 600 bicycle parking spots located around the stadium precinct. The stadium has 1,400 car parking bays, but they are reserved for staff, premium ticket holders and disability parking.[59] Ataxi rank is next to the stadium.[63]

A 96-metre (315 ft) jetty was built near Matagarup Bridge and officially opened on 11 June 2018. The Burswood Jetty allows all public and commercial vessels to drop off or pick up patrons with a 15-minute time limit.[64] The Little Ferry Co. operates a service which stops every wed-sun at the jetty, whileCaptain Cook Cruises operatescruise transfers to and from the jetty on event days.[65][66][67]

Perth Stadium is used forAustralian rules football matches in theAustralian Football League (AFL) from March–September. The stadium was constructed to provide a new home ground for theWest Coast Eagles andFremantle Dockers, Perth's two professional AFL clubs. The state government negotiated an agreement with the AFL and theWest Australian Football Commission (WAFC) in October 2017, allowing the Eagles and Dockers to play their home matches at the venue from the start of the2018 season, in exchange for a $10.3 million a year guarantee for the WAFC until 2028.[68] Fremantle'swomen's team hosted the first Australian rules football match at the venue againstCollingwood on 10 February 2018, and the attendance of 41,975 was the highest stand-alone figure in domestic women's sport.[69] The first AFL premiership match to be played at the new stadium was contested betweenWest Coast andSydney on 25 March 2018.[70]
