The PCC rejuvenation project will revitalise the space into a connected and thriving precinct with enhanced facilities such as a large viewing screen, improved safety measures and enhanced landscape spaces.

A key focus of the PCC rejuvenation is to provide new and improved services, including upgraded power, event infrastructure, improved lighting, new bollards, security upgrades, and a loading dock for Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts.

A joint project between the Australian and Western Australian Governments under the $1.7 billion Perth City Deal — this $55 million redevelopment will create a safer and more welcoming space for the community to enjoy. The project is being led on behalf of the State Government by the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (DLGSC).

Construction commencing

Construction fencing has been erected and the works to redevelop the PCC will begin on 6 January 2025.

There are various construction activities that will occur on site that may result in intermittent noise and vibration, such as:

  • demolition of existing structures
  • earthworks, including excavation
  • vehicle and plant movements in and out of site areas
  • general construction works noise
  • use of power and hand tools.

DLGSC is working closely with businesses and the City of Perth to minimise disruption while these important revitalisation works take place, and to ensure the works are completed as efficiently as possible.

All cultural organisations and businesses remain open during this time.
