Applecross is one of Perth's most prestigious riverside suburbs, occupying the southern bank of the Derbarl Yerrigan (Swan River) in the City of Melville. Its combination of large established properties, river frontage, and a strong community culture makes it one of the most consistently popular outdoor cinema locations in southern Perth.
Canning Bridge, opened in 1953, is the main connection between Applecross and Perth's northern suburbs. It carries Canning Highway across the Derbarl Yerrigan (Swan River) and is one of the landmarks that defines Applecross for anyone who lives or works here. The bridge lights above the river are a well-known resting spot for Australian pelicans. On most evenings, a few can be spotted sitting on the light fittings above the water. We cross this bridge every time we head to an Applecross event, and we always look. Kate and Alexander have called it the pelican bridge for years. It is one of those things that makes arriving in Applecross feel like arriving somewhere worth being.
The Swan River is known to the Whadjuk Noongar people as the Derbarl Yerrigan. Point Walter in nearby Bicton, known as Dyoondalup, is a significant Whadjuk Noongar cultural site on the river's southern bank. The City of Melville actively collaborates with Noongar traditional owners on the management and interpretation of these riverside places. Any outdoor event on foreshore land in the Applecross area is held on Whadjuk Noongar Boodja.
