The Centre will host the Hockey Australia Centre of Excellence (HACE) for 18 years, supporting four Olympic cycles and boosting community participation.
We’re thrilled to share that the Development Application for the Australian Hockey Centre has officially been submitted. The Australian Hockey Centre in Perth is a $135 million project designed to establish Western Australia as the leading hockey destination in the country. Spearheaded by the WA Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (DLGSC) in collaboration with Venues West, Hockey WA, Hockey Australia, and other stakeholders, the AHC will provide a world-class facility for high-performance training and international competitions.
Once completed, this state-of-the-art facility will feature four international hockey pitches, a dedicated specialist training facility, and an indoor hockey centre. The feature of the project will be a major stadium with seating for up to 10,000 in event mode, equipped with cutting-edge broadcasting capabilities. It’s set to become the world’s premier hockey venue. The Australian Hockey Centre will serve as a global benchmark for high-performance hockey, proudly housing Australia’s national teams—the Kookaburras and Hockeyroos. Completion is anticipated for 2028.
