The venue
Optus Stadium.
Forget windowless hotel ballrooms. The River View Room sits on the banks of the Swan River, built to spark creativity, not fatigue.

Why it matters
Better views than a hotel basement.
Unlike the typical dark conference basement, the River View Room is flooded with natural light, with floor-to-ceiling views of the Swan River and the Perth CBD.
Combined with the latest event technology from the team at PAV, it is a setting designed to keep you energised, inspired and focused from the first keynote to the final sundowner.
The stadium itself was named the most beautiful sports facility in the world at the Prix Versailles.
What it looks like
Two days by the river.
Train, rideshare or car.
Check Transperth for scheduled line maintenance the day before you travel.
Train
Perth Stadium Station
Take the Armadale or Thornlie-Cockburn line to Perth Stadium Station, then follow the State of Social signage for a five-minute walk. Trains arrive roughly every 7.5 minutes. Several bus routes also serve the stadium parkland.
Rideshare and taxi
Marlee Loop
Uber or taxi: use the dedicated rideshare hub at Marlee Loop, off Victoria Park Drive. It is a short walk to the entrance.
Car
Complimentary parking
Drive in via Victoria Park Drive and event staff will direct you to a park, at no cost.
Access and inclusion
Planned for everyone.
Optus Stadium is fully wheelchair accessible, with lifts to all levels and wide, clear paths of travel. Conferences can be loud, so there are dedicated quiet spaces for anyone needing a break, and a parents’ room on site.
From gluten-free to vegan, the catering is designed so no one goes hungry. Anything else that would help? The access page has the detail.
