Event Details:

Now this is EXCITING!  – Come join in the fun and ride across the new Boorloo Bridge. You can be sure WestCycle will be there.

This will be the first opportunity to walk, wheel and ride across the bridge and pose for a selfie next to the boomerang and digging stick pylons! There are plenty of new spaces to explore in McCallum Park, Heirisson Island and Point Fraser where you will discover murals, sculptures, wayfinding, and plenty of seating to rest, relax and recharge while enjoying the stunning views of the new bridge and the Swan River.

The highlight of the twilight event will be a firework display signalling the much anticipated turning on of the state-of-the-art feature lighting on the bridge.  A very special lighting program has been created to celebrate the bridge opening which will illuminate this new landmark in a way never seen before in Perth!
