The experience
So you actually get to sit down on the player benches? Yeah, that's the part people don't expect. The Optus Stadium tour in Perth takes you through the Fremantle Dockers and West Coast Eagles changerooms, then straight onto the field level where you stand where the athletes stand. It's not a video or a photo op. You're actually there, in the Dennis Commetti Media Centre looking out at the same sightlines the broadcasters use, and then you're in the Victory Lounge taking in views of the Swan River and Matagarup Bridge from angles most visitors never see. The whole thing runs about 90 minutes, and it moves at a pace that works for families with kids and older people too.
The tour starts behind Gate D underneath the City View Cafe, and from there your guide walks you through the spaces that are usually locked off on game days. You'll see the Coaches Room, the actual strategy hub, and get a real sense of how the stadium is built around the players' experience, not just the crowd's. The field of play looks different when you're standing at ground level instead of in the stands. It's smaller than you'd think, and wider. After you've walked the changerooms and the media centre, the final stretch takes you to the viewing areas where the light hits the river and the city skyline sits behind the bridge. It's a good vantage point to just stop and look for a minute.
Tours run at 10am, 11am, and noon most days. Just not on event days or public holidays, so check the calendar before you book. Wheelchair access is built in throughout, and prams are fine if you're bringing small kids. The meeting point is straightforward, and because it's a walking tour with no transport to arrange, you just show up and go. Dress for the weather. Perth can be warm or cool depending on the season, and you're moving through both indoor spaces and open areas.
Is this one for you?Book this if you want to see inside a major stadium without waiting for a game day or arranging your own access. The tour handles the logistics and takes you through the spaces that stay closed to the public.
