It's easy to get stuck hitting up the same spots in your city—the same well-trodden path of pubs, restaurants, walking spots and post-weekend stories that leave you feeling like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day. Luckily, Urban List and RedBalloon are here to break the cycle. We've partnered up with the memory-making experts to curate a series of two-stop, Perth-based experiences to enjoy with your nearest and dearest.
The beauty of Perth is there's always something new to do—memories to make and ways to connect with loved ones. The struggle is knowing where to start. These curated crawls are designed to help you see the city in a whole new light and create stories worth sharing along the way. So whether you're planning a catch-up for mates, dates, or anything in between, we've done all the hard work for you.
PSA: they're only running for a short time and spots are limited, so read on for what's on offer and get booking ASAP.
Game Show Experience & Winery Dinner
Up for a little friendly competition? Get your game show on in this RedBalloon x Urban List experience, where you'll kick things off in an immersive, trivia-style quiz set up like a full-on game show—buzzers included.
This one's designed for groups of four, so it's the perfect opp to get your mates together, or go full-on Family Feud. Take your pick between the OG quiz with fun twists like ever-changing rules and traps, or a music-themed alternative where you might have to name a tune or—be warned—hit a high note. Whichever version you go for, you'll go head-to-head with your loved ones over two 30-minute rounds.
Once your winner is crowned, they'll get to make full use of their newfound bragging rights over a sharing menu at H&C Urban Winery, just a few blocks away. No doubt you'll have post-quiz debates to straighten out and scores to settle, so we've made sure you'll have plenty of food to fuel your night (although we're sure you'll be rehashing the results for years to come). You'll snack on share plate classics like focaccia, fried chicken and chips, accompanied by elevated bites including beef tarts with cured egg and duck leg confit with nduja and dates.

Optus Stadium Rooftop Tour & Brewery Bites
Ready to see the city from new heights? Step on up to the VERTIGO platform at Optus Stadium in this unique experience that'll have you looking out over Perth's Derbarl Yerrigan (Swan River), Matagarup Bridge and city skyline at twilight. Yep, in this RedBalloon x Urban List crawl, you'll get to stand on the rooftop of Optus Stadium (securely harnessed, of course).
With no handrails, you're free to move around and take things at your own pace. Whether you're a fan of heights or looking to challenge yourself with something new, this experience is primed to set you up with a new view in one way or another. Join forces with your adrenaline-loving mates or bring your most supportive loved one for a day you can look back on together.
You'll be riding a high post-tour, so we've locked in a brewery dinner nearby at Bright Tank, where you can unpack it all with a good feed and a brew. Debrief on the view, cheers to facing your fears, and reflect on your experience over a specially curated menu of woodfired flatbread, a 400g wagyu rump and tasty sides, with a tasting paddle of four Bright Tank pours to sip while you feast.
