The Australian Hockey Centre in Perth is a $135 million project set to position Western Australia as the premier hockey destination in the country.

Led by WA’s Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (DLGSC) in partnership with Venues West, Hockey WA, Hockey Australia, and other stakeholders, the Australian Hockey Centre (AHC) will serve as a world-class high-performance facility and international competition venue.

The project includes the development of advanced infrastructure at Curtin University’s Bentley campus, featuring four international hockey pitches, a dedicated specialist training facility, and an indoor hockey centre, spectator seating for up to 10,000 (event mode), and administrative spaces. The Centre will host the Hockey Australia Centre of Excellence (HACE) for 18 years, supporting four Olympic cycles and boosting community participation.

DCWC is proud to provide full cost management services for the WA Department of Finance, ensuring the project is delivered within budget and achieves maximum value for the community. Construction began in February 2025 and is expected to open in 2028, supporting over 200 jobs and contributing $34.4 million to WA’s Gross State Product.
