Restoring Perth's City Status
We
are delighted that Perth has been granted city status to mark
Her Majesty the Queen's Diamond Jubilee in 2012.
Perth is a thriving and dynamic city, with a fascinating history,
welcoming community and a vibrant environment. Our bid, which was
submitted at the end of May 2011, sets out how Perth is
ready to reclaim its rightful place as a city.
Our bid had wide support from many residents, businesses,
the local media, celebrities and politicians. Thank you to everyone
who supported the bid.
