Western Australia’s first Night-Time Economy Strategy has launched, unlocking new opportunities for the State’s after-dark offering.

From hospitality and tourism to arts, culture, sport, retail and events, the strategy supports the liveability and attractiveness of WA while creating safer, more inclusive and connected places for communities and visitors to enjoy after dark.

Developed with input from government agencies, local governments, industry and community stakeholders, the strategy sets a shared direction for how night-time activity is planned, supported and coordinated across Western Australia.

An action plan through to 2029 will set out practical steps to bring the strategy to life.
