ONE
YEAR
CELEBRATING THE FIRST YEAR OF PERTH ARENA.
OFFICIALLY OPENED 10TH NOVEMBER 2012.
ONE
YEAR
AN AMAZING FIRST YEAR.
SIR ELTON JOHN OPENED PERTH ARENA ON NOVEMBER 10TH, 2012 AHEAD OF 19 MAJOR EVENTS IN THE VENUE’S FIRST 30 DAYS. ON THE LAST DAY OF THE OPERATING YEAR, NOVEMBER 9, 2013, BEYONCÉ SET THE ATTENDANCE RECORD FOR A SINGLE PERFORMANCE AT PERTH ARENA WITH 15,500 FANS. PERTH ARENA’S SUCCESSFUL FIRST YEAR IS CROWNED BY A NOMINATION IN THE PRESTIGIOUS POLLSTAR AWARDS FOR THE WORLD’S BEST NEW CONCERT VENUE.
“WITH PERTH ARENA AS ITS NEW HOME, THE HOPMAN CUP IS SURE TO GO FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH” – PREMIER COLIN BARNETT, JANUARY 8, 2013.
GENERAL MANAGER’S NOTE. WHAT AN EXPLOSION THE FIRST YEAR HAS BEEN: A STAGGERING 90 EVENTS, AND ALMOST 1 MILLION VISITORS THROUGH THE DOORS TO WITNESS SOME OF THE WORLD’S MOST TALENTED AND DIVERSE ARTISTS AND ATHLETES. THERE WAS HEAVY METAL, CLASSICAL, POP, CIRCUS, FAIRY TALES, COMEDIANS, MUSICALS, WRESTLERS AND KID’S SHOWS. AS WELL AS THE TALENTED ATHLETES IN TENNIS, BASKETBALL, AND NETBALL (NOT TO MENTION THE NIGHTS LIKE ONE DIRECTION WHERE THE AUDIENCE WERE LOUDER THAN THE BAND!). EACH EVENT BROUGHT A NEW SET OF CHALLENGES FOR OUR VENUE AND ITS BRILLIANT TEAM. WITHIN THIS BOOK YOU CAN SEE WE ARE SUCCEEDING IN OUR QUEST TO DELIVER MEMORABLE EXPERIENCES TO THE PEOPLE OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA, AND THROUGH DIRECT FEEDBACK AND THE MANY ACCOLADES WE HAVE BEEN AWARDED. WE ARE ALSO HAVING A POSITIVE IMPACT ON OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY, INVIGORATING LOCAL BUSINESSES, CHANGING DYNAMICS AND WE CAN SEE GLIMPSES OF WHAT WILL EMERGE IN RELATION TO THE CITY LINK PROJECT. OUR SUCCESS IS DUE TO THE DEDICATED EFFORTS OF CURRENT AND PAST TEAM MEMBERS. IN PARTICULAR WE REMEMBER DAVID HUMPHREYS, OUR FOUNDING GM WHO PASSED AWAY UNEXPECTEDLY, AND STEVE HEVERN WHO TOOK THE REINS AT A VERY CHALLENGING TIME TO BRING THE VENUE ‘ACROSS THE LINE’. LIKE THE VENUE, THE PERTH ARENA TEAM IS WORLDCLASS, AND CONTINUES TO IMPROVE THE EXPERIENCE FOR OUR CUSTOMERS. WE ARE INCREDIBLY FORTUNATE TO HAVE VALUED CLIENTS TO WORK CLOSELY WITH TO CREATE COMMERCIALLY SUCCESSFUL PARTNERSHIPS, ALONG WITH A DEDICATED TEAM AT VENUESWEST, WHO HELP US TO ACHIEVE OUR MISSION. I FEEL VERY PRIVILEGED TO BE A PART OF SUCH AN AMAZINGLY TALENTED TEAM AND LOOK FORWARD TO CREATING MANY MORE MEMORABLE EXPERIENCES FOR THE MILLIONS TO COME.
