The Regal Theatre - Subiaco

The Regal Theatre - Subiaco is a historic theatre and a distinctive example of Art Deco architecture in Perth. Opened in the late 1930s, it retains the character of a classic cinema while operating today as a venue for theatre productions, musicals, concerts, comedy and other live events. The auditorium has a total capacity of 1,048, divided between the stalls and upper lounge level, creating the scale of a substantial theatre while preserving a strong connection between the stage and audience.

Inside, the venue combines its original Art Deco character with the practical features of a modern performance space. Seating arranged across two levels offers good views towards the stage, while the auditorium was designed with acoustics in mind, an important quality for drama, musical productions and live performances. The foyer and period architectural details add to the atmosphere of a traditional theatre experience.

The theatre is located at 474 Hay St, Perth, Australia, on the corner of Hay Street and Rokeby Road in Subiaco. Public car parks are available nearby, bus stops are positioned by the theatre, and Subiaco railway station is only a few minutes' walk from the entrance.

Perth, the sun-soaked capital of Western Australia, is more than a city on the Indian Ocean – it’s also a standout destination for top-tier entertainment and events. Visitors are drawn to its relaxed vibe, modern urban scene, and the fact that key arenas and stadiums are easy to reach, making night-out planning simple and stress-free.

The city prides itself on practical transport infrastructure: Transperth connects the wider metro area by bus, train and ferry, so getting to major event precincts is straightforward without the hassle. If you arrive by rail, Perth Station and Perth Underground Station sit right in the heart of the CBD and work as natural starting points for moving between neighbourhoods. If you fly in, Perth Airport (PER) is the city’s main airport, and connections into town make it easy to transfer onto urban routes and continue towards your accommodation or event locations.

For the full experience, Perth is best explored on foot before or after a concert or match: stroll along the Swan River and drop by Elizabeth Quay, a lively waterfront precinct whose views round out the evening perfectly. For sweeping outlooks and a touch of nature, many visitors choose Kings Park, while central streets, cultural spots and neighbourhoods packed with bars and restaurants are ideal for a quick bite or extending the night with the city’s rhythm.
