From crowd favourites to new additions, Wildcats themed games bring together sport, entertainment and community in a way only the Wildcats can. Every round has its own story and every game offers fans a chance to be part of something bigger.
It all begins on Thursday 2 October when the Open Air Game supporting MSWA makes its return. This unique fixture has quickly become a fan favourite and will once again transform RAC Arena into something special. The Wildcats take on defending champions Illawarra Hawks under the open roof, in a primetime showdown set in an unforgettable atmosphere.
Saturday 25 October will see RAC Arena come to life for Indigenous Round. In partnership with P&N Bank, the night celebrates the strength and richness of First Nations culture through music, movement and storytelling. From on-court artwork to community engagement, the club will proudly honour the Traditional Owners of the land and the enduring relationship between basketball and culture.
Then on Saturday 15 November, the spotlight shifts to those who show up all year round. Members Round is a full-game celebration of the Red Army’s loyalty, dedication and passion. With the support of Containers for Change, the club will recognise and reward the fans who make The Jungle one of the toughest places to play in the league.
As the season rolls into December, we rewind the clock with the return of Retro Round on Friday 18 December. This one is all about Perth Wildcats throwbacks and good old nostalgia vibes. From vintage jerseys and old-school tunes to nods to past legends, the arena will be transformed into a celebration of the greatest NBL club through the decades.
That energy continues as Pride Round returns on Thursday 22 January. Supported by HIF, a fun filled night celebrating inclusivity, community and belonging. The Wildcats are proud to create a space where everyone feels welcome and to champion diversity within sport and beyond.
The regular season concludes with one of the most meaningful nights of the year. The Pink Game returns on Friday 6 February with the Wildcats once again taking the floor in support of Breast Cancer Care WA. The Wildcats will wear their special pink jerseys and the entire arena will rally around a cause that continues to touch countless lives. It is always a powerful and emotional night and one of the most anticipated fixtures on the calendar.
