About this venue

Situated between Victoria Gardens and Gloucester Park, Arden Street Reserve has stunning views of the Swan River and Optus Stadium.

Arden Street Reserve is popular on the weekend for exercise groups and for families wanting to hold picnics with Swan River views in the background. Landscaped lawns and dual-use footpaths make this space an ideal area for a quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of the CBD. Continue your walk along the footpaths and you will find the Peace Grove Memorial as well as access to Matagarup Bridge.

Sit high up on this reserve and you’ll get a panoramic view of Burswood and beyond.
