Perth’s all-inclusive home of revelry, The Court, is going full country this May—transforming its massive indoor-outdoor Northbridge stomping ground into the rowdiest rodeo outside of Texas every Friday and Saturday night from May 9-30.
It’s Mardi Gras meets the wild wild west, with DJs, line dancing, western-themed drag shows, giveaways, drink specials, and more. Oh, and did we mention they’re even rolling out a bucking bull!? If you manage to stay upright after all those Snake Oil Shots, I tip my hat to you.
Everything To Get Around At ‘Court Cowboys’
They say everything’s bigger in Texas, and in this case, they’re not wrong. Giddy up for non-stop country chaos all month long at The Court. Here’s what’s in store.
Country Line Dancing
Pull those sparkly cowboy boots out of retirement and get down for line dancing every Saturday evening from 7pm. The Court have the biggest country floor fillers locked, loaded and raring to go. All you have to do is get your ass on the floor.
Western-Themed Drag Shows
The Court’s resident queens, Fay Rocious, Couger Morrison and Donna Kebab are pulling out the big guns with a wild new western-themed drag show promising to put the hoe in hoedown. They’re on Friday nights at 10.30pm and 11.30pm, so time your shots accordingly.
All-Night Drink Specials
Of course, no hoedown is complete without a few drinks. And thankfully, The Court is slinging a solid line-up of drink specials all night long. Think: snake oil shots of whiskey mixed with white creme de menthe. After all that, hop on the bucking bull at your own risk, my friends.
Must-Win Prizes
The good old country raffle has also been given a rodeo-worthy glow-up, with $1,250 in travel vouchers up for grabs. To throw your hat in the ring, just snap a pic at the photo wall and use #CourtCowboys for your chance to win a $500 Flight Centre voucher, a $500 Airbnb voucher, plus a $250 experience voucher.
Getting There
Now, a bit of housekeeping before you go completely buck wild. The Cultural Centre is still in its maze-like reno era (IYKYK), so to get to The Court from Northbridge, journey up Roe Street and down Beaufort Street, or just follow the walkway from James Street through the Cultural Centre. They’re open ‘til 2am, so make like Miley and embrace ‘the climb’—you’ve got plenty of time.
