Sport and Recreation Minister Terry Waldron said that seats at the new venue would be bigger or at least similar to Etihad Stadium across all tiers, with sightlines equal to or better than those experienced at the current benchmark Australian stadiums - the MCG and Etihad Stadium.
“Watching a game at Perth’s new stadium will be a far better experience than at Patersons Stadium, with a good view from every seat and a range of offerings available to everyone,” he said.
Fact File
- Seating dimensions for the bowl will be:
- General Admission - row depth 825mm, seat spacing 500mm (standard greater than Etihad)
- Premium seating level - row depth 900mm, seat spacing 550mm (standard similar to Etihad)
- Suite level - row depth 950mm, seat spacing 550mm (standard similar to Etihad)
- Seating bowl sightlines based on achieving best balance between sightlines & proximity to play
- Focal point for all tiers is to be 15m inside the fence line. This will produce sightlines:

- in the upper tier sightlines to match the MCG upper tiers sightlines
- in the club & suite tier sightlines to match the MCG but with proximity similar to Etihad
