We are excited to share the completion of the Master Plan Concept Report for the Fremantle Oval Redevelopment Project, marking a key milestone in the City of Fremantle's efforts to revitalise and elevate this important community and recreational precinct.
Thanks to the collaboration of the City of Fremantle and our project partners - South Fremantle Football Club (SFFC), Fremantle Dockers (FFC), and the West Australian Football Commission (WAFC), we have crafted a cohesive vision for the future development and operation of this redevelopment.

Seamless Integration: Creating a vibrant, multi-use space that hosts a variety of events and activities for year-round enjoyment.
Catalyst for Investment: Driving economic diversification and attracting new investment to the precinct and surrounding areas.
