WACA, Perth, Australia

The WACA (Western Australian Cricket Association) is a sports stadium in Perth, Western Australia. It was established in 1890. The first Test match was played at the ground in 1970. The WACA has also been the home ground of the state of Western Australia's domestic cricket team, currently known as the Western Warriors. The pitch at the WACA was regarded as one of the quickest and bounciest in the world. Its capacity is 24500 spectators. Throughout its history, the ground has also been used for a range of other sports, including athletics carnivals, Australian rules football, baseball, soccer, rugby league, rugby union, international rules football. However, recent years have seen most of these activities relocated to other venues. It has also been used for major rock concerts.
