This is no ordinary long weekend. The prancing, purple Freo Dockers are Grand Final bound, and for a club still chasing its first premiership, there’s a very real chance this could be the most exciting September long weekend Perth has ever had.

Will the Dockers make history at the MCG? Will we be celebrating into the small hours of the morning? Or will we be quietly pretending we never watched the final quarter? Either way, there’s a whole extra day of the weekend to make the most of. Whether it’s caffeine and a quick bite, a proper feed or a few drinks to relive every bounce, bump and baffling umpiring decision, Perth has plenty of places to keep the long weekend rolling.

Here’s what’s open in Perth on Monday 28 September.
