A temporary pedestrian-friendly pop-up hub is coming to the View Street carpark behind the Rosie and Bendigo Bank next month for 10 free community events.

City of Vincent’s Shortcut Lane: Pop-Up Event Series is supported by RAC’s Reconnect WA initiative, and will see 10 free events over the month of May.

These include food truck twilight markets, open-air movie nights, second-hand vintage markets, workshops and more.

“Our exciting events line-up will have something for people of all ages and abilities such as mini golf sessions, community mural painting, movie nights, food markets and more,” said City of Vincent Mayor Alison Xamon.

“This trial project is a great opportunity to see if the community wants to see more permanent activation and events in the laneway.”

As part of the initiative al fresco seating, greenery, festoon lights and entry installations will also be installed, the project born out of Vincent’s Strategic Community Plan 2022-2034 highlighted a desire for more activated community spaces.

During the event period drivers can still access the View Street and Rosemount carparks (with additional speed restrictions and a reduction in parking bays), and on days where the space is not activated the number of parking bays will return as per usual.
