Tourism Western Australia

Tourism WA is the State Government agency responsible for promoting Western Australia as an extraordinary holiday and business event destination. We focus on marketing the State; developing, attracting and promoting major sporting, arts, cultural and business events; and supporting major projects that will draw visitors to particular destinations. We work in partnership with the private sector, industry and government to develop WA's iconic tourism experiences and promote them locally, nationally and internationally. Tourism WA is a statutory authority under the portfolio of the Minister for Tourism and is governed by a board of Commissioners. The agency was established under the Western Australian Tourism Commission Act 1983 .
