Step off the edge of Optus Stadium and walk ten metres across nothing but sky — Vertigo pairs a safety‑first harness system with raw, exposed views of Derbarl Yerrigan and the Perth skyline. This 90‑minute rooftop experience is briefed, guided, and designed for those comfortable with heights.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You emerge from the briefing tent into an open sky and the hum of a stadium full below. The roof underfoot is broad and bare; wind pushes at your jacket, the Swan River glitters to the northeast, and Matagarup Bridge arcs like a spine across the water. Harness clipped above, you step away from the roofline and traverse ten metres across a no‑railing span — Vertigo is simple, exposed, and immediate.

Secure loose items
Leave phones, hats, and jewelry in lockers or a secured pocket — anything loose can catch wind or fall from the roof.
Wear stable footwear
Flat, closed‑toe shoes with good grip are required; trainers with a solid sole are best for the metal roof surface.
Hydrate and time your visit
Pick morning or late‑afternoon for cooler temperatures and calmer winds; bring a small water bottle and hydrate beforehand.
Know the health limits
Check age, height, weight and medical requirements before booking — some participants over 75 need a medical form.
