Don’t Lose Yourself, lose the car for Eminem

Eminem fans won’t need to Walk on Water to get to the Eminem concert at Optus Stadium, they can simply catch a bus or train.

Public transport is included in all tickets to the event and concert-goers should check the Transperth website to plan their journey.

Train passengers will need to change in the city to the Armadale or Thornlie Line to reach Optus Stadium.

Special event services will be operating to get concert-goers to and from the event. The Suburban event bus network will not be operating before the event, however it will operate afterwards, along with special event trains to get attendees home.
