About the Business
Welcome to Yagan Square, a vibrant and dynamic destination located in the heart of Perth, Australia. This renowned establishment offers a wide range of experiences, making it a must-visit for both locals and tourists alike.
Yagan Square is not just your ordinary establishment, it is a hub of culture and celebration of Western Australian heritage. The Wildflower Garden, a stunning display of native plants and flowers, showcases the unique seasonal colors and characters found only in our state. This garden is a true reflection of the beauty and diversity of Western Australia.
One of the highlights of Yagan Square is its engaging public art, featuring cultural programs, digital art, and mesmerizing light shows on the Digital Tower. These artistic displays captivate visitors and provide an immersive experience that celebrates the rich history and traditions of the Whadjuk people, the traditional owners of the land.
The cultural engagement process that shaped Yagan Square involved the Whadjuk Working Party and South West Aboriginal Land and Sea Council, ensuring that the Aboriginal narrative is woven throughout the square. The stories of the Whadjuk people, exploring themes of place, people, animals, birds, and landscape, create a strong sense of connection to the land and its history.
But Yagan Square is not just about culture and heritage; it is also a place for fun and entertainment. With a diverse range of free events, including family activities, live music, and cultural events, Yagan Square truly comes alive during the summer months.

Reviews
"Yagan Square is currently (July 2023) under redevelopment concurrently with the construction of the ECU University city campus. The open spaces are largely gone, and this space is essentially a wide thoroughfare linking the city centre to Northbridge. Ironically, the place is much quieter despite the masses of people flowing through the area. The open grassy knolls and water features, along with many park benches, are all now behind construction hoarding boards. Gone, too, are the many vagrants and homeless that used to live in the Square. It feels a lot safer and is less intimidating to walk through the square without dodging fighting families or loud drunks that seemed to emerge at nightfall."
"Awake 2023 with #bonifacioaurio performed at Yagan Square for a free public event alongside other interstate and international instructors and dancers with Perth locals. It was a great venue with plenty of open space to perform, stage for the music and singing as well as ample seating for the audience. Affordable parking is a few minutes walk away with two CCP parking options nearby."
"Now coming to the review of Yagan Square. Located in the heart of Perth, WA, Yagan Square is a dynamic meeting place filled with an energy that echoes the Aboriginal significance of the site. It's not just a place for transit, but a hub of culture, food, and art. The cuisine offerings are diverse, catering to various food lovers. Its splendid architecture is an embodiment of modern design seamlessly blending in historical elements. In the evening, the nearby digital tower lights up, painting a vibrant and lively atmosphere. With regular events and an interactive playground for children, Yagan Square caters to both families and individuals. Overall, a visit to Perth would feel incomplete without passing by Yagan Square, the city's beating heart"
"Not much going on really. A couple of good bars, but mainly a connection between CBD and northbridge or Perth train station. Might be better once surrounding construction finishes."
"Chinese New Year celebration was going on. Including lion dance. There were many good trucks too. This spot on a weekend had always surprised me with its events."
