Claremont Showground, Heritage sports venue in Claremont, Australia.
The Claremont Showground spans over 32 acres of land and features multiple indoor and outdoor venues, including a central grassed arena larger than Melbourne Cricket Ground.
The land was reserved in 1902 and officially opened in 1905, replacing the Guildford Showgrounds as the primary event space for Western Australian gatherings.
The venue holds the annual Perth Royal Show, drawing over one million visitors for agricultural exhibitions, entertainment performances, and community celebrations throughout the year.
The facility includes its own railway station, connecting visitors directly to Perth and Fremantle business districts, with parking spaces and wheelchair accessibility.
The grounds operated as a speedway venue from 1927 to 1999, making it the longest-serving speedway location worldwide before its redevelopment into exhibition spaces.
