White sands hotel

The location was originally known as the White Sands Hotel when it was built in 1968, with a later rebranding to the Indian Ocean Hotel in 1990. The venue became a vital platform for local and international artists, including some of the biggest names in music. It's regarded as one of Perth's most iconic music venues and is a significant landmark in Scarborough's music scene. It has been a support for emerging bands like The Triffids, The Waifs and John Butler, and has hosted significant acts such as Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones.
