Welcome Reception: Fraser's Kings Park
Fraser’s—a place that celebrates the best Western Australia has to offer in food, wine and
service, set in one of the most spectacular locations in the state. Fraser’s is named after
the avenue it sits on, the famous Fraser Avenue in beautiful Kings Park, which was named
after Malcolm Fraser—the first Surveyor-General of Perth. The avenue is lined with lemon-
scented gums, their interlocking branches forming a majestic canopy over the spectacular
entrance to the park. The addition of a new, permanent State Reception Centre situated on
the top of the building, high in the gum trees has a stunning view over the city and river.
Fraser’s Restaurant opened in 1993, with executive chef Chris Taylor at the helm. Since these
early days the restaurant has won numerous awards, and Chris is considered one of the top
chefs in the state.
Coaches will depart Crown Perth at 6.00pm for those who would like to walk about the
gardens and take in the views, and 6.30pm for the 15 minute drive. Finger food and drinks
will be served, plus the opportunity to network informally with fellow delegates, sponsors
and exhibitors. The winner of the Aspect of Kings Park gift voucher will be drawn during the
pre-registration, so please ensure you are in attendance. Coaches will return delegates to
the Conference hotels at 8.30pm and 9.00pm.
