Media release
Australian construction company ADCO Constructions started breaking ground on essential structural work required to restore the integrity of the heritage listed building.
The WA Government awarded the forward works tender to the Australian owned and operated construction company as part of an early contractor involvement procurement strategy, with the main works scheduled to be awarded in November 2025. ADCO is a well-known and respected builder in WA and has delivered similar large-scale, government and private projects.
A digital fly-through of the Perth Concert Hall project shows a new and improved entry experience from St Georges Terrace, through a redesigned and landscaped forecourt to create a more connected and welcoming approach to the venue.
The revitalisation also includes internal refurbishments such as creation of a home for the West Australian Symphony Orchestra including office and rehearsal spaces, new bar areas and events spaces along with remodelling of the auditorium entry, stairs and lifts to improve venue accessibility.
Updated seating, lighting and backstage facilities have been carefully considered to preserve the venue's distinctive features and internationally renowned acoustic features.
The Perth Concert Hall redevelopment is one of 14 projects under the $1.7 billion Perth City Deal partnership.
The $150.3 million investment includes $134.3 million in WA Government funding through the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries, $12 million from the Australian Government and $4 million from the City of Perth.
The popular concert venue was the first Australian concert hall built after World War II.
