About BBL: Perth Scorchers v Melbourne Stars

A Boxing Day fixture in the Big Bash calendar, this is the kind of match that pulls in families and groups still on holiday leave, filling the stands with cricket fans looking for an evening out rather than a quiet night in. Twenty20 cricket moves fast, with the contest usually decided inside three hours, so expect big hitting, quick turnarounds between overs and a crowd that stays loud from the first ball.

Where to stay nearby

Perth is the only sensible base for this fixture, sitting just 3km from Optus Stadium and offering the widest choice of accommodation by far, with 338 hotels listed. Staying centrally means you can walk, taxi or take a short ride to the ground, avoiding the need to plan around long-distance transport. Regular public transport and matchday bus or train services typically run into the stadium precinct, so check ahead for the exact routes in operation on the day. Basing yourself in Perth also means easy access to restaurants and bars for pre- or post-match food and drink, useful given the early evening start time.

Perth — about 3 km away

Perth suits pretty much every kind of visitor, from those after a quick and cheap stay to those wanting something central and comfortable. The stadium is a short journey away by train, bus, or the pedestrian bridge across the Swan River, and match-day services run frequently before and after events.

About Optus Stadium

Perth's riverside stadium stands on the Burswood peninsula with the city skyline across the water, a 60,000-seat bowl that takes Test and Big Bash cricket, AFL and the biggest touring concerts. The Matagarup Bridge carries walkers over the Swan to East Perth, and Stadium station sits beside the gates with trains into the centre in minutes.

The surrounding parkland is genuinely pleasant before a game rather than just somewhere to queue. A room in the CBD or East Perth keeps the walk short and the trains close.
