About the City of Subiaco The City of Subiaco is one of Perth’s most recognised and vibrant inner-city precincts.

In recent years Subiaco has seen significant change with residential growth, public realm improvements and a thriving hospitality, retail, and entertainment sector.

As the City continues to evolve destination marketing, events and place activation play an increasingly important role in supporting local businesses, strengthening community pride and encouraging people to experience everything Subiaco has to offer.

Our Economic Development and Place team works across destination marketing, business engagement, events, place activation and economic development to help shape the future of Subiaco.
