His Majesty's Theatre is one of Perth's most distinctive theatres and a notable example of Edwardian architecture. Opened in 1904, the theatre is a protected Western Australian heritage landmark, with its ornate historic design remaining central to the venue's identity. The main auditorium accommodates around 1,250 guests across three levels, with a characteristic horseshoe-shaped layout that brings the audience closer to the stage.
Inside, historic character is combined with the practical features of a modern performance venue. The horseshoe-shaped auditorium is designed to provide good sightlines and an engaging sound experience, while the proscenium arch, orchestra pit and richly detailed interiors create a classic theatrical atmosphere. Foyer bars serve drinks and light snacks, and lift access is available to all levels of the theatre.
The theatre is centrally located at 827-905 Hay St, Perth, Australia. Covered public parking is available nearby, including His Majesty's Theatre Car Park with access from Murray Street, while the RED CAT bus stops at “His Majesty's” on Hay Street for convenient arrival close to the venue.
