AFL at Optus Stadium Transfers
Optus Stadium, BurswoodMarch – September
Two AFL clubs call Optus Stadium home, which means 40-plus home games a season and 60,000 people trying to leave Burswood at the same time every weekend from March to September. Private vehicles can't pick up or drop off at the stadium itself on event days — general traffic is pushed to the rideshare bays on Nelson Avenue and Sailani Avenue across the Matagarup Bridge, where the post-game queue can outlast the fourth quarter.
PerthRide runs game-day transfers as a return booking at one fixed price: drop-off as close as event-day traffic management allows before the bounce, and a pre-booked pickup at an agreed point as the crowd disperses — no surge, no rideshare lottery, no 45-minute queue with a full carpark still ahead of you.
Drop-off reality
On event days private cars can't stop at the stadium — official pickup is the Nelson Avenue / Sailani Avenue rideshare zone, a walk over Matagarup Bridge.
The exit problem
60,000 fans leave at once; trains queue at Perth Stadium station and rideshare surge peaks in the 30 minutes after the siren.
The PerthRide play
A return booking with an agreed pickup point and a driver already positioned — one fixed price for the whole game day.
Event-day traffic management closes the stadium precinct to private vehicles, so drivers drop at the closest permitted point — typically the Burswood or East Perth side of the precinct — and the walk in via Matagarup Bridge or Burswood Park takes about ten minutes.
The pickup point and time window are agreed at booking, and your driver messages a precise position as crowds clear — a pre-booked fixed fare means no post-game surge and no competing with 60,000 people for a rideshare.
A people mover carries up to seven fans at one fixed vehicle price both ways, which routinely beats stadium parking plus individual rideshares on game day.
One fixed quote, confirmed in writing before you commit — airport, FIFO, event night or the long run south.
