This Spring, Brookfield Place will once again come alive with the sounds of Perth’s most exciting emerging talent, as WAAPA students take centre stage for a series of free midday performances.

From the smooth sounds of jazz to the energy of contemporary and the elegance of classical, the program promises something for every music lover.

The series offers audiences a chance to step away from the workday and immerse themselves in the city’s cultural energy, the perfect midday recharge in the heart of the CBD.

Performances take place from 11.45am to 1.15pm at Brookfield Place Main Square. Entry is free, with WAAPA students performing across jazz, classical, and contemporary genres throughout October.

After an afternoon immersed in live performance, Brookfield Place invites visitors to extend their afternoon at one of its premium bars and restaurants. From casual daytime eateries to vibrant night spots including Café Court, The Heritage, W Churchill, Bar Lafayette, Print Hall and Papi Katsu, there is something for every taste and occasion.

With its unique mix of live entertainment, dining, and hospitality, Brookfield Place is the perfect destination to transition from workday to social mode — all in one central city location.

Celebrate Spring, support Perth’s next generation of artists, and make a day of it at Brookfield Place.
