Event resources

Be part of the buzz and benefits that major events bring to Western Australia, through the delivery of experiences and attractions beyond the core program. Showcase your business or organisation and engage with local and out-of-state visitors alike.

Whether you propose to  host premium pre and post-game offerings, or you have innovative activation ideas that may add to the vibrant event atmosphere within the host venue precinct, we would love to hear from you.

Tourism WA will work with key stakeholders to support your activity, which may include provision of resources, funding or partnerships. Support will vary depending on the event and the proposed activity.
