Extending between the State Library of WA and the Art Gallery of WA, Central Square features ample shading from trees in some areas and attracts pedestrian traffic through each of the entry points into the Perth Cultural Centre.
The area is serviced by Polly, an outdoor cafe . The space is well suited to family friendly and student focused events, installations, surveys, experiential marketing and as a mustering point for scavenger hunt/team building activities.
